TWO STEPPIN' TO TEXAS
Planning Sheet 4
Extension activities:
CLASSIFICATORY:
Students write a classificatory paper comparing and contrasting
two of the immigrant groups. One of the Venn diagrams will be
used to collect data and develop a plan for writing. The finished
product needs to have correct capitalization, spelling, and
punctuation. It should follow the general guidelines of a
well written classificatory paper.
LETTER COMPOSITION:
Students write a letter from the viewpoint of an immigrant child
from the group they researched. The letter is written to a
relative who still lives in their homeland. The letter includes the
following kind of information: details about what life is like in
their settlement including the kind of home they live in, positive
experiences and hardships, and new things they have seen or
experienced like different types of animals they have seen, and
new foods they have eaten, and something they miss about
their homeland. The letter needs to be 1-2 pages long and
include well written sentences with correct spelling,
capitalization and punctuation.
CREATE A PERSUASIVE POSTER:
Students design and create an attractive poster like the ones
which were displayed in European communities, advertising the
opportunities in Texas. This needs to be constructed on 12" x 18"
paper; students may use markers, colored pencils, or crayons.
It should include the following: an eye catching statement or slogan,
who to contact with an address (maybe an empresario), and the
benefits of moving there; like fertile farmland, how much land would
be received and its price, temperate climate, etc.; and the name
of the settlement, and information about its general location
in Texas (west of San Antonio, on the coast, etc.). Information
may be written in bullet form, and needs to be spelled correctly
and done neatly. A border or illustrations may be included if desired.
