This week in humanities, we continued exploring the human stories of immigration, by examining the following guiding questions and using a variety of resources, including a guest speaker on Monday.
Why would someone leave their home?
Where do they go when they leave? (What is the journey like?)
What is it like for them when they arrive?
Thanks Samantha @Calgarylip & Umashanie @yycbridge for speaking to @connectcharter 9s today about current realities of immigration in our place. We really appreciate your time to help us understand the intersection between legislation & the human face of immigration. pic.twitter.com/DbJ3iZwaOJ— Jaime Groeller (@missg_teaches) March 4, 2019
What is the journey like for some who come to Canada? @connectcharter 9s used an interactive documentary to try and understand the refugee experience. pic.twitter.com/XtNfN0NAiP— Jaime Groeller (@missg_teaches) March 5, 2019
Where on the map do you fit? What is your immigration history? What is your immigration future? @connectcharter 9s added themselves to their bespoke immigration maps today. “I didn’t meet any of these people. This is kind of fun!” 👍🏼 pic.twitter.com/uE6MtVjlmp— Jaime Groeller (@missg_teaches) March 6, 2019
