I think it was cool to see 1,714 immigrants become U.S citizens.I also liked it because I got to learn about were some immigrants come from.I also liked when the judge recognized our school and some got to lead the pledge of elegance. I also like the part when the judge said the oth to all the immigrants.I also liked getting to interview the immigrants
ReplyDeleteIt was a big honor to see 1,714 people become new citizens of the United States. I had a lot of fun interviewing all kinds of people. For example, one person was from Nigeria and another one was from Honduras. I learned that there are over 100 different places where people immigrate from. I loved meeting all these different people.
ReplyDeleteI think the ceremony was very interesting. Because these people came from all different parts of the world. For example I interviewed a man named George and he was from the philippines. I think these people worked very hard to be a citizen of the US. I felt very lucky to watch the ceremony today.

ReplyDeleteIt was amazing to see 1,714 people become U.S citizens. It seem like a lot of people but it was supposed to small. I was surprised when the judge said that there were over 100 people from different countrys. Interviewing the new U.S citizens was fun. One person that I interviewed was living here for 30 years!

DeleteI love the Naturalization of immigration ceremony. It was so cool. l I thought in my head that if I was one of those people I would be very anxious. Something else I thought in my head was oh wow I cannot believe there are 1714 people immigrating from other countries. I thought to myself that's a lot of people! I am thankful for getting to go there because not a lot of people get to do this.

DeleteI think we are very lucky to be able to goto a naturalization. It was very cool to me all the people because we got to learn about what country they came from and I think it's very interesting to learn about what countries they came from and how long they had been in the United States. I liked when the judge ask everyone to stand up and do the oath and she asked if anyone wanted to and if anyone was going to do it in a different language or a different way and nobody raise their hand. I think that that is very respectful. I can't believe we Watch people become citizens. Just think we just saw people become citizens of the United States and our countries big and they're very lucky and special to be able to come and be citizens of the United States.
ReplyDeleteI think the ceremony was amazing. There were people from more then 100 country's. There somebody that I interviewed hat was from Nepal and another person who was from Nigeria. I want to remember how happy the immigrants citizens of america. That's what I think about the immigration ceremony.
ReplyDeleteIt was very exciting to watch people become citizens. I saw a lot of people supporting there friends and family. Some of the very little children evan understood how big of a deal this is. talking to them and hearing about there story was my favorite part. A whole lot and really evan all were really important people to me there story is very inspiering to me. there was evan a person that can barley talk so when ever he told us something his son had to translate evan though he was speaking some english. But he was still out there and he was great like I said inspiering!��
ReplyDeleteI loved the the Naturalization of immigration ceremony. Right when I walked in the room I was blown away by how many people were in the room. I did know that 1,714 people were going to become a new american citizen that day. every 1,714 people took a oath. After that, Isabel, Turner, Abby and Alex leaded the pledge. After the ceremony was over we interviewed some of the people becoming American citizen. it was really cool and I hope we can do it again some time.
ReplyDeleteI thought it was so much fun! There was a lot of interesting people there. It was so cool that we got too see all those people become apart of the U.S.! I thought there was going too be way less people there. And the fact that we got too interview most of the people is amazing! We are so so lucky that they let us go too the ceremony!
ReplyDeleteWe are so lucky that we got good seats and we got to go to the ceremony! I think that some people have been wanting to do this so they can vote, have a passport, and live a better life! I interviewed A person named Tu, and she had a baby girl while she was here! Good job Izzy! You did great up there doing the pledge!
ReplyDeleteHave A GREAT Night!!!!

It was cool how we got to see 1,714 immigrants and interview them! I was nervous when I was interviewing the people in line. And I saw my brothers old teacher!!!!!!!! It was so cool. 4 people from each class got to go on stage and said the pledge. Unfortunately I wasn't one of the people who got to do it. After all, this field trip was amazing! I hope you have a good day and bye!!!
ReplyDeleteIt was cool to watch people tack the oath to become American citizens! And it was so cool win we sow 1714 immigrants. And when we interview all of those people. I was super nervous when we meet the first person. Then I was not.
ReplyDeleteI so agree!!!!
DeleteI agree too!
DeleteI thought the ceremony was very cool because 1714 people became us citizens. I also liked when Gary sang the national anthem. It was super cool when we got to interview people I got nervous that someone would say no. 4 people from our grade got to lead the pledge. I also thought it was amazing that a high school basketball gym is that big.
ReplyDeleteIt was so cool to see people come fellow American Citizens! Everybody there seemed so excited, I was excited too. That experience will definitely be remembered as a special opportunity to me. The best part was getting to interview people. I loved that they all had pretty much different answers. Isabel, Abby, Turner, and Alex got to lead the pledge! I felt like a V.I.P, it was amazing! I love learning about immigrants!
ReplyDeletei think we had V.I.P seats to
DeleteI think it was cool because we all got to see the new Americans say the oath and we got V.I.P seat to see it all. And I thought everybody their was so nice to let us interview them. And that was the closest I have ever been to someone singing the national anthem. And it was cool to hear were they all came from. And it was cool to hear their accent's.
ReplyDeleteI was surprised when I heard that 1,714 people was a smaller amount of people becoming citezens than usual. The first person me and Bennett interviewed said he came to America because of the hamburgers. It was cool to see where a lot of people came from and why they came. At first I thought they were going to do it one by one . I felt so happy to be able to go to a naturalization ceromony because I know not every one gets to go to a thing like that.
ReplyDeleteI was amazed because there 1,714 people that came americans! One of the reasons I thought there so impressive of how many people there were is because I thought one person would come up at a time.I thought it would be more organized. I also noticed that most of the people had siblings with them in line. And I also noticed that most were exited on the inside and didn't,t show it on the outside.
