OPENING MATERIALS

Good morning class! .

Before we begin our lesson, I would like to ask you:


Do you or your family come from a different country? From where?

What do you think immigration is?

Today we are going to learn and talk about immigration.

INTRODUCTION TO NEW MATERIAL

Immigration is when someone moves to a different country forever.


Immigration has always been a part of our country’s history. Everyone
living in the United States has immigrated (moved) here from somewhere
else.
Even though the United States is “a country of immigrants”. Immigration
has been a problem in the past and continues to be today. Let’s read to
learn about it.

During reading students will respond to questions aloud or with partners
Guiding Questions:
 What is immigration?
 Why do people immigrate to the United States?
 How do you think immigrants feel to move to a new country?

Immigration continues today but it has become a problem. Some

DISCUSSION
Many people still immigrate to the United States like our family members
did a long time ago. Now that we know why immigration is a problem that
people do not agree on, let’s talk about some questions:
 What do you think about immigration?
 Do you agree or disagree with it?
 Should people still be able to immigrate to the U.S.? Why?
 What do you think is a solution to this problem?
CLOSING
We’ve learned so much about immigration today! I would like you to write
about your opinion about immigration. What do you think about
immigration? Do you agree with people immigrating to the U.S. or do you
disagree with people coming to the U.S.?
