WHAT WAS IT REALLY LIKE?
Ever wonder what life was like during the different periods in history that we study? Lucky for us, FDR's New Deal programs gathered and saved accounts of what happened to the people.
Your Mission
You will research and compile your own reports
on the lives of different people. In the process you will come to know
what people went through during the Great Depression in the area known as the
Dust Bowl. You will produce a newspaper depicting the lives of people
and what happened during this pivotal time in US history.
Open the "Activities" Link and the search for truth begins.
Important: The
rubric that explains the requirements for this project can be found in the
"Your Grade" page.
