Immigration Celebration
Over the decades America has earned it's name as “the great melting pot”. For many years, millions of people have immigrated here from all over the world. Whether they came for peace, love, or freedom, it does not make a difference. They all took their own path to get here, and we, the Green House eighth graders, thought it fit to recognize their tales. Every person we interviewed came from a different country, for different reasons. After collecting their information, we created the stories of each individual's immigration experience and put them all together in this e-book. We studied why they left, what they faced, and how it all turned out. We discussed the entire immigration process and how it feels to start over in a completely new country. America would not be what it is today without immigrants, and everyone we interviewed is now a part of our ever-expanding melting pot.
