At first, we learned about different immigrants like kid immigrants and adult immigrants. Also, we learned about places where many immigrants have settled, like America mostly, and I realized that Elvis island was significant to many immigrants. And Ms. Roberts told us we should interview an immigrant to learn more about settlers and how they came and their experience.
The process was relatively easy at first. Then it got more complex because it was easy to get like the first ten questions. After all, I already had them in mind. But I had to get 20 questions, and one resource that helped me was a friend. He and I started brainstorming some questions. And it took a long time but instead of having 20 ok questions we made at least 15 and we couldn’t only choose 15 but in the end, we did and it looked very good for me.
My experience was kinda hard because my mom would be very busy she had to take care 3 kids then my brother and sister came from college so it got harder and harder but one thing that was good is that my mom typed it for me I told her the questions and she typed the answers so when all the kids were at school my mom was free so she finished the interview for me. And this project went even better than I planned. Also, it was cool I learned stuff I didn’t even know about for example my mom’s old best friends and her experience coming here so even if it was hard I learned a lot of new things.
So overall even if it was hard this project so far has taught me a lot and it has been very interesting it taught me about my mother’s past and how she lived when I was not born and how she was younger and overall it was very fun.
