Anne Frank Diary + Zlata's Diary

This Historical Skills lesson investigates what evidence we can gain from diaries such as Anne Frank’s diary (written during the Holocaust in WWII) and Zlata’s Diary (written in the 1990s in Sarajevo during the Bosnian War). Students will evaluate ‘how useful’ diaries are.

This download includes a fully editable powerpoint with all activities, instructions, clip links and worksheets/information sheets you need. It is differentiated 2/3 ways where possible with scaffolding and challenge options and is fully planned with plenty of activities for your students to complete including a starter, all clips and related tasks, think pair share card sort, thought provoking mini-plenaries, a consolidation explain written question and a plenary.

Activities are planned to encourage thinking and discussion.
