This project was made
possible through a SABES (System for Adult Basic Education Support)
mini-grant, provided by the Adult Literacy Resource Institute/SABES
Greater Boston Regional Support Center. SABES is funded by the
Massachusetts Department of Education and by an Adult Education Special
Projects (section 353) grant from the U.S. Department of Education.

Photographs were taken by the creator of this website, Rebecca Pomerantz, except for the list below. Clip art is from ClickArt by Broderbund, unless noted here. I thank my students and colleagues for the use of their images to teach about immigration. I also thank the following organizations and individuals for their useful websites and pictures and for allowing their work to be used here. I have made occasional minor changes to the originals.
Much appreciation goes to my husband Terry Traub. He chose, played (on fiddle, accordian, piano, mandolin, and tamborine), and recorded most of the music . And I thank him for a huge amount of help and technical advice on a moment's notice concerning everything from sound and scanning pictures to uploading files, testing and troubleshooting, and for his patience with me during this project.
The Music pages, the Songs about Immigrants page, the Numbers page and the More Information page have their credits on the page.
