Instructional Ideas

  • Assign each group a different data chart and country and have them update the immigration statistics

Classroom Considerations

  • The activity does not consider recent events that have influenced the global perspective of immigration
  • The data charts, reflecting statistics from 2000, would need to be updated
  • The ninth in a series of 13 resources designed to be used in order

Pros

  • The 38-page packet includes a detailed plan, images, maps of migrant-sending and migrant-receiving countries, graphic organizers, and information sheets

Cons

  • The data sheets are outdated
