What is so great about America? Activity: Imagine that you came to America alone—when you arrived at Ellis Island you knew no one and could not speak English. After being in America for several months you are grateful for the opportunities and freedom that you have. Write a persuasive letter to your family members encouraging them to migrate to America as well. Consider things in America that your family may not have back home—job opportunities, religious freedom, democracy, free education, etc.

One of you will take on the role of a news reporter and one of you will take on the role of an immigrant.

What opportunities did America provide that your homeland did not?
