Each student in a 7th grade history class will receive a photo of a child who just immigrated to US or who recently moved to the a city. The students have already talked about immigrants/immigration and have moved on to studying the relationships between immigrants and Americans as both groups assimilate to life in cities. You could vary your photos between immigrants that moved to the city and Americans that migrated to the city. They will embody this person and tell that person’s story from their perspective.They will describe this person and create a narrative about their life in an effort to see history through the eyes of someone living it. Students will have options for how to present their work is presented. Most of the student's’ research will be self-guided. They will be given resources and skills to do their research.
