Wow! We read Coming to America: The Story of Immigration together as a class today and had a great debate about whether America is more of a melting pot or a mosaic. We examined both sides of the argument and had good reasonings behind each one.
The students had the opportunity to learn how to use FlickR today (http://www.flickr.com/), an online site that provides free photos. The students searched for pictures that demonstrated the diversity America has and made mosaic people out of them. Some students did not finish, so you may be seeing them at home. These must be completed and ready for Diversity Day on Monday, May 10.
We didn't get a chance to choose literature novels today, so we will be doing that tomorrow! Also, be on the lookout for guidelines about an interview for a family member and about creating your own family tree!
