Hey Bobcats!

As promised, we are going to take a look at the issue of immigration concerning both documented and undocumented workers in the United States, as well as Arizona law S.B. 1070.

But first, I would like you to take the survey, "Personal Views on Immigration" to get you to thinking about where you stand on the issues. The survey is listed below.

FOR MAY 17

When you leave class TODAY (MAY 17), you are expected to have completed the survey.

FOR MAY 18

After taking the survey, please open the following Word document, "America on the Move. " SAVE IT TO YOUR FOLDER ON THE H DRIVE!

The questions are based on links to pages from the National Museum of American History's website. You will be asked to click on the links and write or type your responses to the questions.

PRINT OUT THE PAPER AND TURN IT IN FOR CREDIT. MAKE SURE YOUR NAME IS ON IT. THIS IS DUE BY THE END OF CLASS ON TUESDAY, MAY 18.
