At Ellis Island Day, the culminating
event of our immigration unit, 5th grade students participated
in a simulation during which they pretended to be immigrants
coming to America from a foreign country. In preparation
for the event, each student chose a country and immigrant name,
created a passport, and even printed off pictures of their
homeland's currency.
In this broadcast, a few students
share their experiences during Ellis Island Day. Please be
patient as this broadcast is a bit longer than usual due to the
many activities associated with the event. While you're
listening, try and catch the immigrant names used by the
students listed below.
Student order of appearance:
- Shelby
- Jeremiah
- Samantha
- Stephanie
- Austin
- Gabriella
