Please complete this journal on a separate piece of paper set up in MLA format.

Mr. Frank tells Anne, "There are no walls, there are no bolts, no locks that anyone can put on your mind."

What does he mean?

Please write 1-2 paragraphs explaining what he means, and how his message might apply to your own life.

For today's journal, please write me a paragraph about the differences between what we've read so far in the play, and the realities of Anne's life. For instance, in the play, the family sharing the hiding place with the Franks are called the van Daans, but in real life, they were the van Pelses.

Please get out your homework from last night, your calendar, your vocab, your glossary, your small green book, your large green book, and a pencil. Find Anne Frank in both the large and the small books.

Get out your vocabulary from yesterday. Make sure your pictures are finished. Quiz your partner for FIVE MINUTES only. I am going to come around and stamp your vocabulary if you are done with it.

MUCHAS GRACIAS, MIS ESTUDIANTES FABULOSOS!
