Digital Presentation Instructions & Rubric

For the next two weeks, we will be reading Seedfolks by Paul Fleischman, a story detailing the lives of 13 very different people who are all connected by a garden that ends up transforming their lives.

This week you are going to be creating a digital presentation, providing the following information as part of your presentation.

Compare and contrast your life as part of a community in your home country with your life as part of a community of immigrants in the United States. 

1.) What community have you been a part of in the past? Provide background about your past life and the community you belonged to.

2.) How does this compare to the community you are part of now at Emma Lazarus High School? Detail the changes in community and the support you receive now from our school and your peers, friends, or families.

3.) Did you make choices about what community you would join when you arrived in the United States? 

4.)Was one community more supportive than the other (i.e. home country vs. new country)?
