They will develop a sense of empathy by simulating the situations which Japanese American children faced. Grade Levels: Intermediate - High School Lesson ONE BUILDING AWARENESS OF THE JAPANESE AMERICAN WARTIME EXPERIENCE Description: It is difficult for anyone to truly feel the experiences that others have gone through unless he or she has been through similar situations. However, it is very important for students to "feel" history as well as to know it. Therefore, students can study the circumstances under which Japanese Americans were removed from their homes, their cities, and encamped in isolation during World War II. Grade Levels: Intermediate - High School Lesson TWO UNDERSTANDING THE BILL OF RIGHTS AND THE JAPANESE AMERICAN INTERNMENT EXPERIENCE Description: To guide and support students in the processes of critical thinking and group interaction through the study of The Bill of Rights and the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II.

It refers to changes in isolated patches of land as well as to changes in land bordering recognized deserts. Although there is much debate on the causes of the process as there is on its solution, most scientists agree that it is brought about by a mixture of both human and environmental factors. Changes in settlement patterns, increased population growth, drought , erosion, deforestation, overcultivation and overgrazing of land, are just some of the factors which contribute to it. Suggestion: Team up with your students' science teacher to do an intensive unit on the process.

The subject is very topical and there is no shortage of information for students to work on. The intention is to introduce students to the topic and encourage them to look at typical examination type questions related to this issue. The opportunity of using the debate to highlight both the positive and the negative externalities is very useful and helps to highlight the problems decision makers have in offering definitive answers to difficult questions. The final queston in the series encourages students to develop their higher order skills. Learning Objectives: At the end of the lessons students should understand the following: To understand the difference between positive and negative externalities and to be able to give clear examples of each.

59. Kim Wells, Online Portfolio Lesson Plans used, the curriculum stresses introducing students to rhetorical strategies, including classical forms of argument and debate. These lesson plans reflect this http://www.womenwriters.net/portfolio/lessonplans/

Lesson Plans drop me an email saying specifically which file you're looking for, and I'll send you a copy. The one that gets the most attention, which is the Rose for Emily plan, I've left up here, though. :) Sorry for the hassle if I can figure out a way to get a grant for all this stuff, I'll post it all back again. English 104 "Intro to Composition and Rhetoric" at A&M, where these were used, the curriculum stresses introducing students to rhetorical strategies, including classical forms of argument and debate. These lesson plans reflect this, but could be used in any basic writing course. How to Begin an Essay I use this handout in 104, but it would work well in a literature course too. English 203 "Intro to Literature" or "Composition Through Literature" this course is a composition course emphasizing research skills and learning proper quotation, citation, etc. But it does this using literary texts, so it's really fun to teach. The lesson plans below are some of my favorites. A Rose For Emily lesson plan this is a really engaging activity. After students have read Faulkner's short story, I bring in handouts of this sheet, as well as a version of it on transparency. I then have them do two things the first is to pick out the places where there has been some "yellow journalism" on my part or, things that we do not know based on the story. The second thing we do, after discussing the possibility that this story "could" happen this way, is have them pick sides (prosecution/defense) and "try" Emily for the murder of Homer Barron. When I have done this lesson, the entire class has been excited, and come up with interesting and innovative ways of looking at the story. They really dig into the "facts" of Faulkner's world.

Background for Teachers Classroom Activities Washington State Constitution Senate Members ... Back to School Coordinators High School Lesson Plan 4 - "Why Compromise? The Importance of Compromise in a Representative Democracy" If you want to use these lesson plans in conjunction with a visit from a legislator, remember to coordinate your plans with the legislator. Specifically, if the activity requires preparation by the legislator, ask whether the legislator will be able to prepare. Also, if the students are interested in particular issues, alerting the legislator will likely make for a more interesting visit. Rationale of the Lesson Objectives At the conclusion of this Lesson, students should be able to. • understand that in a diverse society, such as ours, a wide range of views on important issues is normal and often helpful in giving us the best range of options from which we can make choices. • explain how the process of compromise works to aid in the legislative process.
