Test review

Yesterday in class we went over our tests and the format for the exam. We went over all the questions and the format. I am kind of nervous for the test but I feel that I have all the items that I need to help me study. I am very stressed because of all the exams and how much they count for. But as long as I try my best and study really hard I think that I will do ok.

Immigration essay part 2

Today in class we were able to work on our essays again. I feel really good about my essay! I feel that I brought up a lot of good points and executed it well. I am nervous though because I want to do really good to bring my grade up. We also had the opportunity to peer edit, which I didn't do, but I thought it was a nice Idea to have an extra set of eyes on our paper. I am also stressing about the exam but I know that it is the last one we take so I am lucky that I have extra time for that. Over all I am very glad that we got to do our essay at home as well as in class.

Immigration essay

Today in class we had a substitute and we worked on our essays. I personally got very far on mine and enjoyed that we were able to work on them in class. I feel very good about my essay and I feel that I am gonna get a good grade. Oh and Mr. Schick graded our tests and I got a 75 so like I barely got a C which was really disappointing cause I felt that I did really good. I definitely could have studied more and like focused on the dates but its ok because I am gonna do awesome on my exam!

Migration Test

Today in class we took a migration test which was okay. I feel like I got most of it correct but I feel a little confused on some. I think that it was a fair test I just feel like I definitely could have studied harder. Im hoping that I got a good grade. I also feel that it was helpful in so many ways to have a test before the exam because then I have something to study from and to look off of. I also like how we have to write essays on the migration topic because we get to tell our opinion. We can also study from that and that is a great way to study because it contains a lot of information. The test was also pretty easy because it was all discussed in class several times.

Immigration and Migration

Today in class we got a packet that had all the information we need for our test. I read the whole thing and then high lighted key ideas and definitions. On of the things that I high lighted was about Government immigration policies. Most countries have adopted this way of selectively picking immigrants and lets in some but not others. Two reasons why visas are granted are for specific employment placement and family reunification. The U.N. classifies countries according to four types of immigration policies.
1. maintain the current level of immigration
2. increase the level
3. reduce the level
4. no policy
I also read about unauthorized immigration. The number of people allowed to immigrate into the United States is at a historically high level but the number who wish to come is even higher.
