0 Comments

 


Today, you will be working on pages 11-12 in your notebooks to understand the main events and general timeline leading to Internment camps and Fred Korematsu's case.

By the end of class, you'll need to complete pages 11-12 of your notebooks.


Starter 
Scroll through this list of google images of Dr. Seuss's representation of Japanese people.  Look closely at at least 5 of them.  
  1. What stereotypes about Japanese people do you see represented in these images?  Try to name at least three different ones.
  2. What is your reaction to the fact that Dr. Seuss is the author of these cartoons?​

Agenda
Analyze the 
Original Newsreel of Pearl Harbor 
  1. What adjectives does the speaker use to describe the attack and the Japanese?
  2. What adjectives does the speaker use to describe the Americans? 
  3. What would your reaction be to this report in 1941? 

Lecture: Ashley's brief intro to the Nanking massacre inquiry

Work time: Complete pages 11-12.  When you're done, finish reading the Zinn and Schweitzer reading assignment and answer questions on page 14 of your  notebook for tomorrow's discussion.
Here are some resources to help:
  1. This is the handout you'll need for the Nanking massacre inquiry on page 11 of your notebook (it is at the end of the hard copy notebooks I handed out Tuesday).
  2. This is a great summary to help you with the timeline and the summary of Korematsu's case

Read Zinn/Schweitzer for tomorrow's class discussion and complete questions on page 14 of your notebooks for these chapter excerpts!

Last 15 minutes of class:
Review answers for pages 11-12 and discussion reactions to today's readings/activities.
