STARTER: 
  • Get out your seminar prep and copy of SFoC with sticky notes.  
  • Circle 2-3 questions you are most interested during seminar in asking in your seminar prep packet.  Don't have yours? Share with a friend in your seminar group
SFOC Seminar Groups


Agenda
1. Printed copy of seminar prep:  Write "please grade" on top if you want me to average this with your seminar grade when you turn it in after your seminar.

2. Seminar + Trial Work Time


When you're not in seminar, here are your work time options:

*** See Helpful Resources on yesterday's blog post or on the Korematsu project page****


Witnesses:  

  • Read/annotate the Zinn and Patriot's history chapters
  • Begin researching your 2nd witness and writing his bio

Direct Examination Lawyers of the three witnesses that are ready with their bios:  

  • Research your assigned witness's role in internment camps and any significant reports/memos that could be used as evidence
  • Read the **Report** Excerpts (see below)
  • Google Doc Folder of Defense Witness Bios
  • Google Doc Folder of Prosecution Witness Bios

Other Lawyers:  
Read the **Report** and begin thinking about what your team's "theory/theme" of the case might be.  What is your "thesis" if you will or the big picture argument your team is making overall to prove your side of the case.  
**Final Report on Japanese Evacuation of West Coast (authored by Dewitt with contribution by Bendetson)**
  • Excerpts 
  • Full-text

Cross-Examination Lawyers: If you are cross examining one of the witnesses whose bio is ready, read his bio and his entry on the densho website and/or the bios students wrote that are linked below and do some preliminary research on what evidence you might be able to use against the witness.  I also recommend you finish reading the Report (see above for the links)

  • Google Doc Folder of Defense Witness Bios
  • Google Doc Folder of Prosecution Witness Bios

Judges: 

  • Class A Judges: Finish the schedule for the trial and share the document with Ashley
  • Finish reading and annotating
  • Work on POL prep
