Note: This is not a ‘typical’ social studies lesson on Japanese American incarceration. It will involve working with material regarding trauma. Activities 1 and 2 cover life skills and can be offered in the classroom at any time. (It may be ideal to teach this toward the beginning of the school year) Activity 3 is a foundational piece on what intergenerational trauma is. Activities 4, 5 and 6 go deeper into this topic.
