"Did you know that the United States has the highest immigrant population in the world?

Students will examine this . . . phrase by retracing the immigrant journey within the United States and investigating the concept of cultural assimilation"--Provided by publisher.

As the United States continues to grow and change, students can become better-informed citizens by looking at the immigrant experience and understanding the roots of American identities.
