8th grade Students in Mrs. Mohr's Literacy class studied the history of the Holocaust. They read the play, "The Diary of Anne Frank." Yesterday students were able to experience a virtual reality of the Secret Annex where Anne Frank lived for three years before being captured. The pictures below are some of the students participating in the virtual reality experience. District Technology Director, Brent Gerzema assisted students with the task and Instructional Coach Mrs. Schmit and Principal Ms. Osborne were also able to participate in this amazing experience.
