Introduction
History is a study of past events that have shaped our home.
5/6 we will be looking at migration & immigration!
To begin, this is a WebQuest where I will create tasks for you to complete. A WebQuest is an inquiry-oriented lesson format in which most or all the information that learners work with comes from the web. Which means we will be using the internet and computers a lot!
We must remember how to use computers positively if we want to continue using the computers.
Here are the rules:
Only go on to the websites I have instructed you to go to. (NO edmodo!)
Treat the computers as if they were your own- DON'T BE ROUGH!
If you are caught doing the wrong thing you will be using pencil and paper again!
Task
Task One (Tuesday)
Find the definitions for the words below and write a short sentence showing your understanding of the word within Australia.
Migrant
Immigrant
Immigration
Migration
Displaced person
Free migration
Assimilation into new community.
For example: Migrant is defined as a person who has moved or moves for better living conditions in places other than their national. Within Australia there are many migrants. I know this because we have a lot of different nationalities here.
Use Microsoft Word to type your work!
Now check with Miss Horton with what to do next...
