Immigration and Migration in U.S. History: Discover and Learn with the Library

The history of the United States, including its culture, economy, and political life, has been shaped by the movement of people and communities, both those who came to its shores and those who moved within its borders. Immigration and Migration in US History shares an array of primary sources that provide opportunities for learners to explore many different aspects of the topic, including experiences of immigration, migration, and relocation; perspectives on government policies; and the resulting communities and new ways of life. It offers classroom-ready materials for teachers, librarians, and home educators working with grades 6–12. Part of Discover and Learn with the Library, an educational series published by the Library of Congress in association with the American Library Association, this resource is designed to support state curricula and teaching standards. It combines full-color facsimiles of primary sources from the Library’s unparalleled collections with source citations, information about the sources’ origins, teaching strategies, and guides to additional online resources.  Softcover, 86 pages.
