Teacher: Jim Sachs

Type of Resource: Internet Site http://www.ellisisland.org/immexp/wseix_4_3.asp

Description:

Students explored sites related to the great influx of immigrants to this nation and the processing at Ellis Island.

How the site was used in class:

Relates to our studies concerning the diversity of the USA and the make-up of our nation.

The things I like most about the site are as follows:

Students were fascinated and very engaged throughout!

Limitations and suggestions to overcome shortcomings:

Very few limitations...I have been using this method for years and it works well at addressing multiple intelligences and learning styles.
