Irony
Diary of Anne Frank Act 1, Scenes 1 - 3
Learning Target
• Understanding dramatic irony in literature.
• (The quicker we can get through this, the quicker we can get
to the movie and watch more of it since we are just watching
the beginning.)
Irony – (in your notes!)
• Irony is a contrast between what is expected and what really
happens.
Example of irony
• In Act 1, Scene 2, Anne’s mom, Mrs. Frank is upset that they
will be using ration books illegally.
• Her expectations are that they are not a family who does
illegal things like using forged ration books.
• The contrast is that in reality, they are doing something illegal
by being in hiding.
