We have read the play Mollys Pilgrim in class.

Along with the play we discussed what it

means to be an immigrant. As part of this unit each student has been given a
clothespin that they will make into a pilgrim that represents THEIR own family heritage
and culture.
Each clothespin is to be turned into a doll dressed in clothing that represents
your familys cultural background. If your family is made up of several different
cultures, then you may choose one to report on. You may use any suitable materials
to dress your pilgrim.
On November 8th you will bring your doll to school and give an oral presentation
about your heritage. Here is how you will be graded:

doll (social Studies) oral Presentation (english)

Directions Points Directions Points

Project includes:
Your pilgrims name
Name of the country from
3 Eye contact 2
which your pilgrim originated
a colored picture of the
country's flag

A paragraph written in the first Clarity 2

person point of view of the pilgrim.
The paragraph needs to include a 5 pts. Posture 2
topic sentence, at least three

It would be a good idea to try and memorize your oral presentation at home. You
may use your paper during your presentation but you must look at the class more than
you look at your paper during your report.

I will be looking forward to learning more about you!
