GERMAN IMMIGRANTS

FACTS THAT NEED TO BE INCLUDED IN EACH PROJECT:

Push/Pull reasons for coming to Iowa When did most of the immigrants arrive? From what continent did your immigrants come? What language do they speak? How did they get here? Where in Iowa did the majority of them settle? What are some of their traditions, food, and clothing? What type of religion do they practice?

YOU MAY SHARE ANYTHING ELSE YOU FEEL APPROPRIATE.

To share your information, your group needs to make an Immigration Mini-Book 1. Fold a sheet of paper in half, hamburger style. 2. Fold it in half again in the same direction. 3. Then fold this long, narrow strip in half in the opposite direction. 4. Open the paper up to the step 2 position and cut halfway down the vertical fold. 5. Open the paper and turn it horizontally. There should be a hole in the center where the cut was made. 6. Fold the paper in half, lengthwise. 7. Push in on the ends of the paper so the slip opens up. Push until the center panels meet. 8. Finally, fold the four pages into a mini-book, flipping through the pages so that the cover is on the outside, then crease the binding.
