Task 3

Click your way through the interactive tour of Ellis Island. If you have enough time, read the extra-information given in the "Photo" sections. Make notes of the different stops (What happened? Who did what? How did they do it? Why did they do it? Where did these things take place?). There's another special vocabulary list for the medical exams.

  • What exams did the immigrants have to pass?
  • Who was allowed to enter the USA?
  • Who was not allowed to enter the USA?
  • What about "everyday life" on Ellis Island: food, dormitories, hospitals?
  • What did the immigrants do once they had passed all the exams?
