The First Illegal Immigrants - A cartoon / caricature

Hey guys,

 

today was the first time you saw Michelle and most of you did a good job of talking. You first asked her questions to get to know her a little more and then we started the new topic that could be entitled: "Multicultural America, in the past and nowadays"

 

1- You took a plane to fly to New-York City and aboard the plane you have to fill the forms to enter the US and go through customs.


Here is a copy of the real forms that are given on the planes to foreigners who intend to visit the USA:

2- You had to comment on these pictures and find the common points between all of them and you learnt some things about who were the first people in America and how / why the USA was built.

3- You had to present, describe, and analyse the meaning of the cartoon:

Here is some of the important vocabulary that you need to remember and reuse in your commentaries on Monday: 

 

"to be written by ..."

 

 

I will ask one or two of you to make an oral presentation about this cartoon as if it were a document for the A-Levels. So get ready!

 

HW: prepare your oral presentation (I-D-A-H-O -> Branch out = 10 minutes) for the cartoon.
