November 12-15

This week the class reviewed what we have learned about immigration in the three waves:

Wave 1: 1600-1775
Wave 2: 1820-1870
Wave 3: 1880-1920s

The class then began learning about contemporary issues in immigration including
Wave 4: 1965-on

The class read and completed a SOAPS+Claim analysis on the article Dream Act Advocate Turns Failure into Success

After studying this article, the class created a Venn Diagram comparing issues surrounding the Dream Act to issues surrounding the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882.


Mr. Zartler also gave a mini-lecture to discuss terms used in politics, and the ideas normally associated with different aspects of the political spectrum.
