Post your 4-5 sentence response on Padlet (here). Comment on two additional posts. en-us 2022-02-17 19:15:10 UTC 2022-02-22 18:22:29 UTC hello@padlet.com Sydnie Menchel, Aviah Levine, Madelyn Denvir Room 3 https://padlet.com/ponybirdmusic/8gtnthkb57mg1hjp/wish/2053945236 Learning this lesson plan, specifically the factors leading to the Chicano School Blowouts, provides both teachers and students with the ability to connect history with the present. It enables students and teachers to make connections, enhance critical thinking skills, as well as embracing cultural differences. As discussed in the article, teaching about the school blowouts provides an opportunity for there to be a conversation about resistance that accompanies injustice. Students are likely to be engaged in this lesson plan because it can be applicable to their life. This draws awareness to what needs to be taught in schools in order to promote equality and inclusive classrooms.  This lesson shows that some students are at a disadvantage than others when discussing history and important topics. This becomes evident which students have the knowledge and understanding of history as well as students who may not be culturally aware.

We believe that the specificness and organization of the lesson plan were useful, however, the time required to complete it should be lengthened over a longer period of time. Some of the challenges of this lesson plan were that the students had to be prepared to act out the lessons and understand the perspectives to act out the roles which could be difficult for the age level. Some of the questions raised in the first activity can cause confusion and uncomfortableness within the classroom and we believe these questions should be re-worded. Some of the promises of this lesson plan are that it teaches multiple perspectives, adheres to diversity, and engages the students. Overall, this is an effective lesson but some aspects need to be altered. ]]> 2022-02-17 19:30:24 UTC https://padlet.com/ponybirdmusic/8gtnthkb57mg1hjp/wish/2053947713 Becca, Emily, Mackenzie, Jennie, Kate, Cala - The Other Internment room 4 https://padlet.com/ponybirdmusic/8gtnthkb57mg1hjp/wish/2053951292 This lesson plan was about the Internment camps of Japanese Latin Americans during WW2. The goal is for students to really grasp and understand how this event affected our history, because it is not a topic that comes up in most history lessons. Students must have good critical thinking skills. They can learn from group reading activity, keeping them engaged. Relating what they are learning to their own lives can also give them a good perspective on what it may have been like during that time period. ]]> 2022-02-17 19:32:36 UTC https://padlet.com/ponybirdmusic/8gtnthkb57mg1hjp/wish/2053951292 Allie Johnson, Micaela Sepelak, Ta'tayanna Sanders https://padlet.com/ponybirdmusic/8gtnthkb57mg1hjp/wish/2053957953 Cherokee Removal
When reading through the lesson plan, my group felt as if it was too complex therefore the students would feel uncomfortable having to play a role. This plan also allows room for controversy based on the different viewpoints that each student has based on the role that they were given. The roles were plantation owners, black Seminoles, farmers, and Cherokees. Based on the assigned group you were put in can be seen as discrimination and possibly racist. On the flip side, this could be a great way for students to see what it was like to be in those people's shoes. Look at it from a different perspective. ]]> 2022-02-17 19:36:26 UTC https://padlet.com/ponybirdmusic/8gtnthkb57mg1hjp/wish/2053957953 Kathryn, Grace, Olivia, GROUP 4 https://padlet.com/ponybirdmusic/8gtnthkb57mg1hjp/wish/2053968452 Our topic is about teaching the hidden story of Japanese Latin Americans during world war 2. 
Students will learn about an entire new perspective that has not been taught in the curriculum. Throughout world war 2 history, the story of the Japanese Latin Americans has not been spoken about or given the recognition of their story that their culture deserves. Many were forced to relocate from their native countries to the United States and were put into internment camps. Even after the war, they were deemed as “illegal aliens,” and when they were sent back to their home countries, they wouldn't be accepted. Thus, they were deported to Japan. The students will now know the hardships, pain, and terror Japanese Latin American experienced throughout World war 2. The students can learn this subject by reading a short text about the topic and then do a class activity that can reenact the main points of the history. While they reenact they use vocabulary or you can have a narrator use important vocabulary the students should remember. Some vocabulary may include refugee houses, Okinawans, “illegal alien,” Boot camp, Prisons, Chuck Yamamoto, Jorge Shimabukuro. Teaching history is a difficult subject because students come from all different backgrounds and cultures. Teaching the lesson as a role play will implement the knowledge into the students minds better, although ideals such as becoming racist or interacting it wrong can make this lesson result very badly.This lesson would need to be taught with strict instructions and having to intervene within every group frequently in order to ensure its going well.
