Immagrant blog post #3 – The interview

 

Before I did my interview I was a little bit nervous. I was nervous becasue I wasn’t confident the video was going to turn out well. For the interview I factimed my grandfather with my mothers phone and I took the video with my phone. I was ready because I had  all of my questions ready. When I started the call I became a little more confident as the time passed. The video was supposed to be no more than five minutes long, but I accidentaly made it eight.

 

When I called my grandfather on my moms phone he picked up right away. I got butterflies in my stomach. So I said the first question. “1 Why did you leave your country?” I thought his answer was pretty good. But when my grandfather said something I didn’t prefer for him to say I cringed. At the end of the eight minute video I was super satisfied. I thought the whole video turned out very good. And I gave a big thanks to my grandfather. I am going to be super excited to put the interview video into spark video.

 

 

 

Writing the Immigrant Interview Questions – Interview #1

 

In 5th grade we do an immigrant project. We choose someone to do an interview on about. We choose 10 to 15 questions to ask our immigrant. The questions are immigrant related so that’s why we chose an immigrant. I chose to do 12 questions. There had to be at least 10 green light questions. A green light question is where the answer has to be a full sentence. A red light question is where the question is an only one word answer. I am going to interview my grandfather who immigrated from Hungary. For the interview I am going to call him.

 

I got a sheet of paper where some questions were. So I used some of the questions on the paper for my interview questions. This is a link to my Interview Questions.

 

 

Those were all of my questions that I am going to use for my interview. I am very excited for the interview. I wonder what he is going to answer.
