Use evidence of conditions from the camps (can be inspired by Camp Harmony or “In Response” poem).
Create a well-developed character/narrator (fictional or nonfictional).
Use Executive Order 9066 as evidence. You may also use evidence from amendments to The U.S. Constitution (these may be paraphrased).
Make connections to any other relevant documents we have read/explored.
Start your letter with a salutation.
Sign a name (it could be a fictional name).
Letter should be double-spaced with 12-point readable font.
