This is a wiki designed to go along with the immigration unit my fifth graders completed this spring. In our unit, we took a quiz that reviewed important information from our social studies text and also completed a research project on a country. Students chose a country their ancestors had lived in before immigrating to America. Their research project had two steps: first, to complete a graphic organizer where they would fill in pertinent information about their country, and second, to create a Powerpoint or Google Docs presentation that contained all of their information as well as pictures. They would share their presentations with the class during the last few weeks of school. Their graphic organizer requested information which included: agriculture, manufacturing, natural resources, holidays, bordering bodies of water, bordering countries, currency, area, population, religion, education, languages, customs, flag, map, and latitude and longitude. Here are some links to some websites my class used to gather their information:

Additionally, here are some files I created for our unit on immigration:

Here is a link to my blog, which has a sample immigration project, as well as an online quiz I created on immigration.

Here is a WebQuest I created to help students with their research: [|WebQuest]

Hopefully you can use some of this information in your own classroom. Feel free to add other helpful research sites!
