"Reel History" is a grade 5 class project that looks at Immigration yesterday and today. Students found out what it was like to come to Canada many years ago through Pier 21 in compared to what it is like immigrating to Canada today. Students research, interview, make local connections, write journals, take field trips to document and create a documentary video on the subject.
