Pages in Immigration Packet
Journal Entry #1
You are a poor immigrant in steerage class on a large ship. You are seasick, tired and hungry. What is like on the ship? What are the smells, the sounds? What is your bed like? Why are leaving home? Do you regret leaving? What are your hopes for your new life in the United States?
Journal Entry #2
Imagine you're a guard at Ellis Island. Your parents were immigrants. What do you think about the new immigrants you are guarding? Do you admire their courage or do you look down on them because they are poor, dirty and tired?
Wed. How is Utah Diverse?
