Today a representative from Nebraska Appleseed came to give all of us a brief informative presentation on immigration. We played a short game called "The Path to Citizenship." We each had to try to be the first person to complete the naturalization process, all whilst navigating the constrictive guidelines placed by the government. We learned so much about the process for citizenship today and had a blast doing it!
We also got a visit from Voices for Children and learned about families in poverty. We did a puzzle where the "puzzle pieces" were pictorial representations of the cost of basic needs, while the small square was the average income of a family below the poverty line. It was a lot more difficult than you would think!
