Class began with a review of the requirements for the current assignment:
Write a story that:
Shows knowledge and understanding of "push" and "pull" factors affecting 3rd wave (18802-1920s) immigration.
Story = characters + conflict => resolution
Written in the 1st person
Includes scenes in at least three (3) of the following segments: original home; travel; Ellis Island; detention/ deportation; new home.
The story can be told in the form of a journal; letters; a narrative, or a combination of these methods.
The class broke into groups of like origin immigrants to check for understanding and received feedback on the current drafts.
Students were assigned drafting additional sections of the story as homework.
