Years 2/4

This week the children have been investigating the mystery contents of a suitcase that arrived in the mail. On lone from the Melbourne Immigration Museum, the suitcase contains special artefacts from  5 different people who migrated to Australia from the 1800’s to modern day. Children have read the story of their journeys and had to match up each item with its owner. A lot of great inferencing was done to find matches with migrants from Germany, Indonesia, China, Japan and the Congo. The photos below give you clues as to what was in the suitcase. What would you pack if you had to migrate to a new country?
