Teaching techniques and tools: | Discuss the terms ‘migration’, ‘immigration’ and ‘emigration’. Explain to students that immigrants are often “pushed” away from their country of origin because of difficulty, or “pulled” to new opportunities. Read through the information about migration story and answer any questions students may have. Supervise and assist students with the activity. Collect student’s completed activity sheets and mark individually or discuss as a class. |
Methodological recommendations for the implementation | Warming up Students will engage in dialogue with students from other schools about the essential questions listed above. Based on this dialogue, students will create hypotheses about their own schools and communities. Students will hypothesize about the following, although teachers can include other areas of inquiry as well: · What percentage of students in my school migrated? · What percentage of students’ parents and grandparents in my school migrated? · What are the main reasons why families from my school migrated? · Where have families in my school come from? Students will justify their hypotheses with personal experience, research, or conversation from the digital platform. |
