BY JULIE OTSUKA PAGES Evacuation Order No. 19

Author She was born and raised in Berkeley, California were the story is set. Her family was forced to evacuate just like the story. *Story is fictional but mirrors experiences *Characters are made up because family didn’t discuss their imprisonment

Third-Person Limited Narrator A narrator who is not in the story zooms in on the thoughts and feelings of one character in the story. Watch the characterization of Mrs. Hayashi.

Author’s Purpose Always ask yourself why the author wrote this particular story. Was the story purely entertainment, or was the author making a particular point?

Drawing Conclusions The ability to look at evidence and formulate an idea of opinion. These are the “ah ha” moments that occur when you are reading and thinking about what you are reading.

The story… As the story opens, Mrs. Hayashi is preparing to leave with her son and daughter. They have been assigned to an internment camp. Her husband has already been taken away. Internment camps were created after the bombing of Pearl Harbor. 120, 000 Japanese Americans were sent to ten camps throughout the country. No charges were filed, but they were treated like criminals.

The Assignment As you read the story, make a list of moments in which you find yourself drawing a conclusion. Note the phrase and page from the text. After the example, note the conclusion that you have drawn. You need at least 5 from different parts of the story including the introduction, body, and conclusion. This list is due Monday.

Drawing Conclusions Example List of Conclusions 1. “then turned around and went home and began to pack” (245) -Mrs. Hayashi sees the notice of internment and realizes that leaving is inevitable You get the idea…Pick the details and tell me what they mean.
