Japanese+Internment+Virtual+Field+Trip

Welcome to our virtual field trip. Our 7th grade ELA class rceently studied Farewell to Manzanar by Jeanne Houston. We were, quite frankly, blown away to learn about the internment camps the United States set up during World War II to house Japanese-Americans. We wanted to share some of the things we learned with other students around the world.

What you'll find here is a virtual field trip. We have tried to set this up a little bit like a museum. You will read a summary about some of the different aspects of the internment experience and find links to outside sources to help you explore these topics more deeply. We have included photographs to help our readers better understand what happened. Enjoy your trip!
