Exercise 1
Step 1
1 of 2
Write an article for the student newspaper about the arrival of an immigrant in your community. You can use the notes from the previous task or you can interview someone else about their experiences before writing your article. If there are immigrant students in your school you can interview one of them!

Translation of my example:
We all come from different places and ethnicities, and by having a dream, people flee their homes to look for something to improve their lives. In my community there is an Asian family that immigrated two years ago. They have a son my age and sometimes we go out together. When they first arrived they were very excited to start a new life here in our country, but he often tells me that there is a lingering feeling of not belonging to our community. She also confessed to me that it can be difficult to grow up Asian American and learn both the culture and our traditions. It is difficult to maintain their sense of community and cultural identity. In my opinion, we need to help these types of families feel better.

Todos venimos de lugares y etnias diferentes, y por tener un sueño, la gente huye de su casa para buscar algo que mejore su vida. En mi comunidad hay una familia asiática que emigró hace dos años. Tienen un hijo de mi edad y a veces salimos juntos. Cuando llegaron por primera vez estaban muy emocionados por empezar una nueva vida aquí en nuestro país, pero a menudo me dice que hay un sentimiento persistente de no pertenecer a nuestra comunidad. También me confesó que puede ser difícil criarse como asiático-americano y aprender tanto la cultura como las nuestras tradiciones. Es difícil mantener su sentido de comunidad e identidad cultural. En mi opinión, debemos contribuir a que este tipo de familias se sientan mejor.
