As part of learning about Japanese internment in the U.S. during World War II, students make double-entry notes in response to a documentary based on “home movies” made in the camps. The notes prepare everyone in the class to explore their observations and ideas in later metacognitive conversations with classmates. Journal entries of two students are presented here.
