As part of their Spring 2012 Social Studies unit, twenty-eight Winchester Thurston School fifth graders interviewed people who came to the U.S. from other countries. Here are excerpts from these interviews, and the students’ reflections on this project.

This collaboration between SLB Radio Productions, Inc. and Winchester Thurston School and was funded by the City as Our Campus initiative.
