Meet Young Immigrants | Scholastic.com

My name is Taylor, I am Korean. My parents are Korean, but my brothers and I were born in Australia. I lived in Korea halfway. Nine months ago, we moved to Atlanta, Georgia, USA. My mother's work moved here, so we moved here.

What I do after school is the same in Korea and the United States. I play the piano to make origami

I am a bit nervous about moving because I am concerned about how to make friends and improve my English. I do not know anything about my new life. I was scared. I have never seen this place so far. My older brother speaks English very well so I like it. My brother is not good at it, he is not happy because it is difficult to do her homework.

My father, grandmother and cousin are still in Korea, I miss them. Keep in touch with Skype

Everything here is different. We eat Korean food in Korea, but here we have steak and hamburgers. My favorite American cuisine is macaroni and cheese.

I learned the trick of Halloween. My mother bought me a suit, which is too big, so I handed out candy at home. In Korea, we celebrate Children's Day, this is not a US holiday. Children's Day is the time that children of May came back from school, took a break and spend with their parents.

What I do after school is the same in Korea and the United States. I play origami piano and make origami. My favorite subjects at school are mathematics and social studies.

I like mathematics because it is very good. I like to study history, so I like sociology.

I like American schools. I have a lot of friends here. I understand that America is a big and good place. The people here are very friendly and very kind to me.

The experience of the two young immigrants reveals an "acceptance" form that many Americans can recruit in the late nineteenth century. In 1894, a young Jewish immigrant from Poland, Marianne came to Boston with her mother and brothers and sisters. They came to see Antioch's father who came first to find a job and build a house. She wrote to autobiography: education is free. My father repeatedly wrote this theme, including his main hope for our children, the nature of America's opportunity, the treasure that a thief can get, even misfortune or even the poor It was. When he sent us, he was able to guarantee us that it is more secure and safer, not just bread and shelter, this is the only thing he can do It is.

Episode: Katrin Hanson (Barbara Bel Geddes) is an ambitious young writer, a childhood story at the turn of the century in San Francisco. Her parents are Norwegian immigrants who work hard in order to make a living, but provide a warm home for their children. Irene Dunne plays Marta Hanson, a smart and kind woman chief. He encourages Katrin to pursue his dream of writing. What I learned: After she continued to accept rejection, Katrin almost gave up writing. But in the end she learned that instead of trying to tell a magnificent story, she needs to practice writing "knowing things": a story of her daily life. This reminds me of the observation of Flannario Connor.
