During the Immigration Activity in class I was surprised by how young some people came to the U.S. I learned about some young children that came to the U.S. On Scholastic.com I read about five young Immigrants and thier journey to the U.S. I also found out about Li Keng Wong's story on Scholastic.com and how she came from China to America with her small family and father to California. When she lived in China her father worked in America, and on a trip home he noticed that the village was living so poorly, and planting rice to make a living, no one had leared to read or write and he decided to move their family to China for a better living situation. I found this interesting because moving to America made a big difference in their lives and how they were living. I would like to know more about what Ellis and Angel Island were like 70-80 years ago compared to how they are today.
