Something else you said struck me. I did a little project last year during the second semester where the students had to track back through their family tree to find an immigrant new to America (and do a brief report on said family member). They really got into it because it was about them and their family, and their classmates' families.

This year, maybe I should start them off with this project to draw them in more quickly and emphasize that the story of America is part of their own story.
