Immigration waivers - How to get through customs and immigration services

Hi guys,

today we took the plane to New York JFK and you tried to get in the USA. Unfortunately for some of you as you were terrorists or drug dealers, you were denied access...

You can download the announcements made by the cabin crew (me...) to welcome you on board and to prepare yourself for landing here:

Here is the waiver that you have to fill in when on the plane to the US:

Here is what we said about it:

Warm Up: Immigration Waiver

Today we did a warm up about immigration services in the USA. Firstly we began with a little activity, we watched a video that made us feel as if we were on a plane; we were the passengers and Mr Hattais was the flight attendant (he made a very good job!). Then we filled in a waiver and to finish we talked about it. We gave our opinion and wrote the lesson.

Lesson:

I don’t think it’s really useful because people can lie. I believe it cannot prevent terrorists from striking. It’s only to enforce security measures and show that the government cares about people. It’s to reassure them.
