TES2 : Ellis Island : the Gateway to Freedom.

Posted on | décembre 16, 2009 | No Comments

Go and find information about Ellis Island, the former immigration-processing center which has now been turned into an immigration Museum.

Please, DO insist on the third link, « the Gateway« . You will then have a full, methodic visit if you  follow the different steps. This is NOT fiction, this is HISTORY : the origins of the United States !

After this complete visit of this « Island of Joy » or  » Island of Tears », you’ll be able to explain the expressions : « the six-second exam », « the Kissing Post »  and many other oddities.

You will then be ready to have a lot of information about the Statue of Liberty on the twin site for « Secondes » and you’ll find a lot of other very interesting links there.

Thanks for your visit !
