Reflection

While you worked on this project, many questions may have started to fester. What were they? Did you feel a connection to the topic? Why or why not? Do have a first hand tale and/or immigration story? Be prepared to share with the class your overall experience with this project.

Extension

In language arts we will further explore the topic of immigration. You will research your family’s genealogy and their arrival in the United States. You will interview family members, compile facts, and create a family tree. Ultimately you will write a personal narrative about your family’s immigration history. Further instructions will be given on our next quest. Until then, start your research. (Hint: the Ellis Island websites provided may be useful.)

Oh and heads up…..our next social studies Web Quest will take us on a journey on immigration today and the beliefs, problems, and/or issues that can arise.
