After studying immigration through Ellis Island, Ms. Puhr, Mrs. Foltz, and Ms. Zipprich’s class ran a simulation of the immigrant experience. Students pretended to be immigrants in the 1890s going through Ellis Island. Students took on the pretend roles of European immigrants, underwent a ‘6-second physical’, were asked 29 questions in the legal inspection, and had to pass a mental health examination. Characters who passed the tests were welcomed to America with the Statue of Liberty.
