1 Name: Social Studies Immigration/English Historical Fiction Unit The Melting Pot The Immigrant Experience E Pluribus Unum: Out of many, one. This motto of the United States was originally used to describe the colonies coming together into one nation. But, the motto has taken on a new life throughout the course of American history. In recent years its meaning has come to suggest that out of many peoples, races, religions, languages, and ancestries has emerged a single people and nation illustrating the concept of the melting pot. As the land of the free, home of the brave, and land of opportunity it is important to appreciate the history of the different races and peoples that contribute to the success of our nation. The New Colossus By Emma Lazarus Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame, With conquering limbs astride from land to land; Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame. Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp! cries she With silent lips. Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door! In order to appreciate the diversity of America, and to further the salad bowl and melting pot theories of immigration, we will be creating a museum that takes visitors through the immigrant experience. We have appropriately named our pop-up museum, The Melting Pot. The museum will display six different exhibits for each group, each depicting a different facet of the immigration experience from (SS) and demonstrating the skills of analyzing setting and determining theme (English). The Final Product Create the Epcot Experience for visitors to our museum by re-creating the country and experience of your immigrant group. Your exhibit will include your individual contribution (see roles below), as well as your collaborative group requirements: a tri-fold board, decorations, pictures, artifacts, and food samples of dish that is authentic to your immigrant group.
