This is an emotional story about a 12 year old boy, Wong Kai Chong, who was forced to leave his home in China and travel to Gold Mountain, America, to live with his father. He had to leave his mother behind in China in order to move to America to be with his father. In 1934, Chinese immigrants were not welcome in America, and when Kai arrived in California, he was forced to stay on Angel Island. Angel Island was were they kept the Chinese immigrants and threatened to send them back to China. The living conditions were horrible, and they had to be intensely interrogated in order to be set free in America. After his long interrogation, Kai was congratulated and allowed to be released to his father in America.
I decided to use a short Powerpoint presentation for my third technology. I think that all students should be very familiar with Powerpoint being that it is something that they will tend to use in the years ahead. I decided to have the students pick out the setting, characters, problem, solution, and climax as the topics for their slides. This will help the students recognize those main points of a story. (The link to the powerpoint on google docs is below.)
