Lesson Plan Bell Work: Upon entering the classroom students will be expected to read and follow the directions on the board. Students will be asked to get out a sheet of paper and write down five things that they know about World War II and use that information to write one to two sentences describing their perceptions of World War II. Students will be given about five minutes to complete their bell work. Once they are done I will call on three to five students to share their answers with the class and elaborate on their responses. Learning Activities & Assessments/Work Session: Students will be given a worksheet broken down into three sections: women, Japanese-Americans, and African Americans. Each section includes 4-5 questions that correspond with a video that will be shown throughout the lesson. Students will hold on to these questions and answer them throughout the lesson. As a class students will analyze a quote recognizing the efforts of women during World War II. One student will be called on to read the quote aloud to the class. Students will be given a minute to think about the quote. Then Students will be asked to share their opinion and what they think that meant for women during this time period. Informal class discussion should last about 2-3 minutes. Students will then be shown a video giving a deeper look into the roles of women during World War II and their feelings about it. As students are watching the video they will be filling out the questions that correspond with this video. After the video is over students will be given an extra minute to finish up their questions.

Once students have completed the questions I will call on specific students to answer each of the questions about the video. Students will be given the opportunity to elaborate on their answers or respond to another students answer for each question. Students must raise their hand and be called on the share. After we have reviewed the questions students will look at three different pictures involving women during World War II. Students will be given a minute to look at each picture in silence. After their minute is up I will ask students to share what they believe is happening in the picture and how it relates to what we have learned about women and their perspective during World War II. Multiple students will answer for each picture. Students will repeat these steps as we look into the perspective of Japanese-Americans and African Americans During World War II. Assessment: Students will be broken up into three sections and each section will be assigned to a specific perspective. The students will take on their role as either a woman, a Japanese-American, or an African American and use what was learned in class to write a one page letter describing the experiences and perspectives of their role throughout the war. Students will be allowed to get as creative as they want with this assignment. Upon completion students will turn their letters in at the front of the classroom. Closer: Once everyone has turned in their letters students will be asked to get out their answers from the bell work activity. I will ask students to reread their responses and give them the opportunity add or change anything about their perspective based on what was learned in the lesson. Students may edit or write an entirely new perspective if they want. If students do not feel any differently then they may write a statement why they feel their response has not changed. !
