SWBAT create a diary
Engage
- Bellwork: What is a diary? Describe.
- Pair Work: The pieces of evidence are used to create a diary account from the perspective of being a migrant at the time. The diary account should try to be authentic in tone and describe a typical experience or event that is likely to have affected an immigrant entering a foreign country. The sources should be included in the diary account as if the migrant who is the subject had created a scrapbook of contemporary material to support their view of life at the time.
- Pair Work: The pairs briefly outline the historical setting and then read the diary accounts to the whole class who make a note of the key experiences of being a migrant in the past.
