1920’s Project
Mr. Rosamilia
In groups of 2 choose a topic and do a CREATIVE project.
This could include creating a news report, magazine or
newspaper, a short movie, examples of music and literature
to share with the class a power point presentation or
anything else you may be interested in.
Your project should include an analysis of how your topic
changed society. Include examples and how these
examples reflected controversy/change at the time. Your
project should also include a comparison to a similar
modern event/conflict.
This presentation must be cleared with me. Include
bibliography!
Please drop any powerpoint presentations into the
following google folder:
