[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 7th grader is learning about The Diary of Anne Frank but apparently, they don't read the actual book, even though this is ENGLISH class. They just watched a movie about it and then did a "research" essay.

MCPS ELA instruction is trash.

That being said, my 7th grader's prompts and assignments from their teacher about The Diary of Anne Frank do talk about the Holocaust and World War II. So not sure why your kids omitted that context.[/quote]

In 7th Grade, a core text is Tales from the Secret Annex. It’s not the diary.

I’m poster who mentioned their kid’s Anne Frank assignment in 7th grade. What you shared here makes sense since I recall “annex” being mentioned no the assignment.

Sadly, they didn’t even read this text in full either. Just quotes and excerpts from it.

The main thing was the movie….[/quote]

That’s an implementation issue with your school or teacher. Kids did actually read the book. [/quote]
