Goal for the day: To introduce the many different sides of the immigration reform debate
We'll start today with a Four Corners exercise to activate our bodies and minds on a Monday morning around immigration reform.
We'll then resume our group work on the different aspects of immigration that we began on Friday. Each group will report out on what they've read, and everyone will take some notes in packet 2 under the appropriate section.
After break, I'll show the film Welcome to Shelbyville, a documentary about "immigrant integration," a movement that helps local communities become more proactive in encouraging tolerance and promoting understanding. Here is the trailer. Immigrant integration programs are one of the more promising approaches to this contentious issue.
I'll pass out packet 3 (Word and PDF) so you can take some notes on the film.
Homework due on Tuesday, November 18th
Go to your senator's web page and find out his or her positions on climate change and immigration reform. Fill this in on the first page of packet 1. Also finish filling out the page on Welcome to Shelbyville in packet 3.
