Step One:
You and a partner will be required to research the events which led to World War II. You will need to discover the countries, people, and historical events involved in World War II. Create a timeline of your findings.

StepTwo: 
Your second task will be to live for two hours as Anne Frank did in the annex. You will have to complete this task at home. Here are your instructions:
1.) Take off your shoes, go to your room, close the windows and doors, and turn off all of the lights except for one flashlight.
2.) During the time in your room, you can not talk, eat, use running water, watch TV, walk, or do anything that makes excessive noise such as flushing the toilet. You must be awake during this time.
3.) Record your thoughts, reactions, and activities you experienced by writing your own diary reflection.
4.) You must have a signed note from a parent, stating you completed this task.

Step Three:
Select one of the following diary entries:
1. Assume Anne takes her diary to the concentration camp. Write two entries about her experiences in the camp.
2. Write two diary entries from the point of view of another child from that time. Give yourself a new name, and write as if you were that child.

3. Pretend you are Miep Geis, and write two journal entries, reflecting on your roll, and how important it is to help the Frank family. What daily activities do you do to help them survive?

3.)the biological vectors
4.)what efforts were made to find the cure
5.)the statistics of how many people died from the disease

Wherever Anne Frank went, she tried to keep a scrapbook of pictures. She took her pictures everywhere she went so she could remember her past. Above is a picture of her house. The pictures were her most precious belongings when everything else seemed to dissappear.
"A picture is worth a thousand words."
