Immigration Simulation.....
Hello parents of 6th graders.
On Tuesday the 20th, our students will
go through Ellis Island (located for this occasion in our B Gym).
Students should come dressed-up to play their part. Boys can wear dark
pants, preferably dark shoes, white shirt, a dark suit jacket or a vest,
and mostly a hat / cap. Girls can wear long skirts and a white blouse, shawls or scarves. Hair can be braided or in a bun. Anything that will
remind late 1800's or early 1900's. Don't forget to bring a piece of
luggage. A big basket, a very old leather looking suitcase, a sac made
of cloth, or just a small blanket rolled-up and held with ropes or
belts. If needed, students can dress-up at school. We will do the activity during 3rd period.
