PRESENTATION OUTLINE

From 1820 to 2010

39,716,684 immigrants came from Europe

It use to be a lot of the immigrants came from

Europe but now it's mainly from Oceania and Asia

That I might not make any friends, might be an outcast

Might be made fun of

Making new friends, making new experiences

More than 12million immigrants made there first stop at Ellis island

In 1903-1914 they were checked for trachoma a contagious eye disease

Trekked hundreds of miles across Europe to get to a seaport

The ships were crowded and dirty

It's hard passing all the exams to get into the USA, but even harder if you fail one

It's also hard getting here, being packed up on those boats like sardines

I would most definitely take all my jewelry, my warmest

Clothes, and some comfortable shoes, pictures

If I were Lucy I would be scarred of being separated

From my parents, and they did not have any birth certificates

Scary, hard,complicated

Isle of tears

Detainees were in a room on the third floor for various amounts of time until there case is reviewed

I would be really tired and exhausted

And a little mad
