Annelies Marie Frank • Annelies “Anne” Frank was born on June 12th, 1929, in Frankfurt, Germany. • She was raised during the Holocaust. • Anne is famous because she wrote a diary while hiding from the Nazi’s.
Dear Kitty... • For Anne’s 13th birthday, her parents gave her a red checkered diary. • On the day she got the diary, she named it “Kitty”. • Every entry Anne made, it would start “Dear Kitty…” • Almost every day, Anne wrote in her diary. • She wrote about what was going on while hiding from the Nazi’s.
The Frank Family • Anne was in a family of 4. • She had a Dad named Otto, Mom named Edith, and a Sister named Margot.
Otto Frank • Otto was born on May 12, 1889 in Frankfurt, Germany. • He had 3 siblings. • Otto was a lieutenant in the German Army during World War 1. • He was a businessman in Germany and in the Netherlands. • Miep Gies describes Otto Frank as:"The calm one, the children’s teacher, the most logical, the one who balanced everything out. He was the leader, the one in charge. When a decision had to be made, all eyes turned to Mr. Frank.”
Margot Frank • Born on February 16th, 1926 in Frankfurt, Germany. • Margot was three years older than Anne. • In Anne’s diary, she describes Margot: ‘Eats like a little mouse, doesn’t say a word.’
Edith Frank • Edith Frank was born on January 16, 1900. • She had 3 siblings. • Otto Frank said that: “I was concerned that there was not a particularly good understanding between my wife and Anne, and I believe my wife suffered more from this than Anne. In reality, she was an excellent mother, who went to any lengths for her children. She often complained that Anne was against everything she did but it was consolation for her to know that Anne trusted me."
Life in Germany • In 1933, Hitler was in control of Germany. • So, the Frank’s took off to Amsterdam where they hoped to break free from the Nazis.
Anne’s Education • Anne went to school until she was put into hiding. • Anne started going to school when she was 5. • It was at a Montessori School in Amsterdam. • At that school, there were many religions such as: Christian and Jewish. • In October of 1940, Anne was forced to go to a Jewish school, by law. • Most of her friends didn’t go to her new school.
ANNE Nice, pretty, shy, and loyal Lover of Friends and family Who excelled at school Who felt the need to help others Who feared Hitler finding out where they were hiding Who would like to see her parents again Believed that someday Jews won’t be treated differently FRANK
Moving Day • On July 5th, 1942 Margot Frank received a letter to report to a Nazi work camp. • The next day, the Frank family left the house to hide from the Nazi’s. • They didn’t bring suitcases, so Anne was wearing 2 vests, three pairs of pants, and a dress. • On top of that she was wearing a jacket, two pairs of socks, sneakers, a hat and scarf.
Hiding • The hiding place would be located in the building where Anne’s Dad’s office was. • They named it: “ The Secret Annexe” • Their friends in the office below kept their secret, brought food and gifts, and provided the news of the events in the city. Mr. Koophuis Mr. Kraler Miep Gies Elli Vossen
This is a diagram Anne made of the place they were hiding, found in her diary.
Hiding Buddies • They’re was more than enough space in the house for just the Franks. • So, they decided to share the space with a 16 year old named Peter and his parents: Auguste and Hermann. Auguste and Hermann were business associates of Otto. • Once everybody settled in, they thought that letting 7 people in there is just as dangerous as 8, so they let Albert Dussel in. • Albert was an old dentist, whose wife moved to another country when the war started.
Busted! • They lived in “The Secret Annexe” for 2 whole years. • On August 4th, 1944, a German police officer, and four Nazis barged into “The Secret Annexe”, and arrested everybody! • The Franks, the Van Daans, Albert Dussel, Mr. Kraler, and Mr. Koophuis, got shipped off to Camp Westerbork; a Concentration Camp in Netherlands. • Then they got transferred to a death camp in Poland, on September 3rd, 1944. • While everybody stayed, Anne and Margot were again transferred to a concentration camp in Germany. • On January 6th, 1945, Anne’s mom died at the camp in Poland.
Jeannine Burk • Jeannine Burk was born on September 15, 1939 in Brussels, Belgium. • Since the German’s attacked Poland that month, her dad decided to put her into hiding. • So, she went to a woman’s house to hide, while her parents stayed home. • For 2 years Jeannie didn’t see her parents, had no friends, had no toys, and almost never got to go outside. • She never met the woman who owned the house, and didn’t even know her name. • Jeannine showed perseverance while hiding for two years, which was risky, boring, and dangerous.
Jeannine + Anne = • Anne Frank and Jeannie Burk are alike in many ways. • They both had a rough childhood. • Anne and Jeannine both spent 2 years hiding, and had no friends, not many toys, and felt alone. • They are alike when Anne was at a concentration camp, she had no parents with her, and Jeannie had no parents with her while hiding. • They both showed perseverance because I don’t think I could survive without my parents, especially while doing something as scary as what they were doing.
Sadly, • Anne and Margot caught typhus, and they both passed away in March of 1945. • Anne was 15 years old at the time, and lived a short life. • Otto Frank was the only person to survive the Holocaust. • We remember Anne to this day for her bravery, and her love of writing.
Afterward… • At the end of the war, Otto returned home, and was searching for news about his family. • On July 18th, 1945 Otto met up with his sisters, who were with Anne and Margot when they died. • When he returned home he realized, Meip, and Elli saved Anne’s diary. • He read it, and was amazed of everything Anne wrote.
