Naturalization Proceeding

The third grade students attended the naturalization proceeding on Friday.  This was a culminating activity for our Immigration Unit. The proceeding included a greeting from Judge Jon Scoles, messages from Senator Tom Harkin, Senator Charles Grassley and Congressman Bruce Braley.  It also included a video message from President Barack Obama.  There was a roll call of the new citizens and the naturalization oath.  The students were excited and interested in the countries the new citizens immigrated from.  It was a great learning experience.  Thank you for helping the third grade students find the answers to the citizenship test.
