★ Japanese men were separated from their families and placed in camps right after the bombing of Pearl Harbor, as required by Executive Order 9066.
★Women and children were sent to one of ten internment camps where they were fenced in and watched over by armed guards.
★Whole families lived in a small room with one light bulb hanging from the ceiling; buildings were poorly built, and sand often blew in through the cracks during the cold desert nights; residents used public bathrooms with no partitions; they ate in age groups in “mess halls,” as opposed to eating as a family (which was a Japanese tradition); children attended on-site segregated schools.
★When families were released, many of them didn’t have jobs or homes to which they could return.

Journey to Topaz Keynote Assignment
You will begin a Keynote project today to show what you learned from reading Journey to Topaz. You will be given TWO class periods to complete the Keynote phase of the assignment. At the end of the second class period, you should be ready to send your Keynote project to Garage Band. In Garage Band, you will add music and narration to your project. When this phase is complete, you will send the project to iTunes. We will save it to a flash drive, and upload it to the iPods for others to view.
Slides should contain the following information:
Slide one - Title page. This page should include the book title, author’s name, and your name.
Slide two - Describe, in your own words, the important issues which affect the cultural group represented in the book.
Slide three - Describe the character you most admire, and tell why (give at least one example from the book of something this character did to earn your admiration). Is this character dynamic or static? How do you know?
Slide four - Describe the character you dislike the most, and tell why (give an example from the book of something this character did or did not do). Is this character dynamic
or static? How do you know?
Slide five - Describe a theme in the book (family, hope, independence, perseverance, etc), and tell why you think it is an important part of the book. Include the tone of the book on this slide. What attitude does the author have about the subject or content of the book?
Slide six - Based on what you read, what predictions can you make about what the future holds for your favorite character? Based on this character’s experience in the book, will the future be easy or difficult? Why?
Slide seven - If you could change one thing for this cultural group, what would it be, and why?
Slide eight -Think about the documentary you watched about the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. The plot of this book (the internment of the Japanese people on the US west coast) was a result of that attack. In your opinion, was the US government justified in its actions? Write a hamburger-style paragraph to share your feelings.
BE SURE to use the spell check tool for your project!!!!!
You should include at least three pictures in your project, which should come from a free site. There are several free sites that have photographs of Japanese internment camps. BE SURE that you copy the URL address onto your slide under the photo in order to give credit.
