Week 16: Survivor's Journal Project

ASSIGNMENT DETAILS:  I will randomly assign you a “pretend” person to trace throughout the Holocaust.  Although this is a “pretend” role, you will be taking on the identity of this person. You will trace this person’s life through your writing. In essence, your “pretend” character will experience the same events as Elie Wiesel in his memoir Night. NOTE: This person is NOT in the story. You will essentially make your “pretend” person a part of the story. 

In order for this project to be complete, ALL items must be included below. 
3 mandatory dialectical journal entries 
Completed Survivor Identification Card with your person’s picture 
Attached rubric
