1. From 1892-1954 many immigrants came to the United States and they all were welcomed by the Statue of Liberty when they arrived by boat through New York Harbor.
*Do you know anyone in your family who was an immigrant and came to the U.S. from another country?  Ask your mom and dad. If yes, where did they come from.
