Throughout this class, our young learners will achieve several goals. They will develop a comprehensive understanding of the historical significance of Ellis Island as a gateway for immigrants coming to America. They will explore the reasons behind immigration, the challenges faced by immigrants before and after leaving their homelands, and the various modes of transportation used for travel. Students will gain insights into the experiences of immigrants upon arriving at Ellis Island, including the processes of detention, sleeping arrangements, and meals provided. Ultimately, they will cultivate empathy, appreciation, and a deeper knowledge of the immigrant journey and its impact on American history. 

As an educator, my expertise stems from my educational background and continuous pursuit of knowledge. With a Bachelor of Arts in History and a Master of Arts in History, I possess a solid foundation in the subject matter. Additionally, my minor in Women's Studies and Humanities has provided me with a well-rounded perspective and a deeper understanding of diverse cultures and perspectives. To stay current in my field, I actively engage in seminars and continuing education classes I have completed courses in Indigenous Studies, Westward Migration, and European Immigration, expanding my knowledge and awareness of historical events and their impacts. Moreover, I have sought professional development in specialized areas such as teaching Neurodivergent students, Social-Emotional Learning, and Waldorf methodologies, equipping me with effective strategies and approaches to support all learners in the classroom. My commitment to ongoing education ensures that I remain a dedicated and knowledgeable educator, ready to meet the evolving needs of my students. 

As an inclusive education, I strive to create a classroom environment where all students feel valued and respected. I understand the importance of embracing diversity and promoting a sense of belonging for every student. By fostering an atmosphere of acceptance, I encourage students to express their unique perspectives and engage in meaningful discussions. I actively incorporate diverse perspectives, cultures, and experiences into my lesson plans, ensuring that all students feel represented and included. By celebrating differences and promoting empathy, I aim to cultivate a learning community where everyone can thrive and reach their full potential.
