WWII Presentations
As part of our study of World War II you will be selecting a related topic to present to the class. The exact format you will use is up to you, but should fit within the following guidelines:
o Your presentation should take from 3 to 5 minutes. Select a topic that is not too broad or narrow. (Airplanes of WWII is to broad. The Enola Gay is too Narrow.)
o You must have some type of visual aid. (PowerPoint, poster, video, overhead, etc.)
o You may work with no more than 2 other students.
o If you work with other students, you must all participate in the presentation.
o If you have any handouts or special requirements for your presentation you need to let me know at least 1 day ahead of time. (This does not mean an email the evening before.)
o As part of the presentation, you need to identify the five most important facts you want people to remember about your topic. These should be printed out and given to me before you present.
o You must be prepared to present on the day assigned.
You may draw your topics from the list you brainstormed in class, from the book, or from some other source. However, there will only be 1 presentation of a given topic in any given class.
Remember:
o The focus needs to be on World War 2. If you are presenting a person, you will need to focus on their role in and importance to the war.
o If you are working with a partner I will expect that you will do a more thorough job than if you are working alone.
o If you work with a partner, you are both responsible for the quality of the presentation.
o If some topics are closely related, I may require that they be presented on the same day.
Presentations will be scheduled on Friday, May 1, and start on Monday, May 4. On Monday, I will take volunteers who are ready to present. After that, you will need to be ready to present at your assigned time.
Monday: Review and discuss Ch. 24. Intro presentations. HW: Review Ch .24; Find topic.
Tuesday: Select topics for WWII presentations. Discuss Chapter 24. Prepare presentation.
Wednesday: Cinderella Man extra credit due. Research topics. HW: Prepare presentations.

Roaring Twenties Project - Mr. Brislen Name ____________________ p. ___
As a class you will be creating a PowerPoint introduction to the 20’s. You will be working in groups researching and developing a slide presentation of one aspect of the 1920’s. The groups will be determined by interest. You and 1 partner may sign up together, but you may be grouped with others who are interested in the same topic.
As we have discussed in class, your group may select from one of the following areas:
1. Politics: will include the presidents and national issues as well as any appropriate local
politics. (Teapot Dome)
2. Fashion and fads: will include information on the fashion, dance, language, etc.
(Flappers)
3. Important events: will include information on important single events that occurred
during this time period. (Lindbergh)
4. Technology and Innovation: will include information on the inventions and use of new
technology during this time. (radio)
5. Sports: will include information on the major sports and athletes of the time. (Negro
Leagues, Babes - Didrikson and Ruth)
6. The Arts: will include information on literature, music, movies, etc. (Harlem
Renaissance, The Jazz singer)
7: Warts: will include information on the darker of side the 20’s especially the rise of
gangsters. (Sacco and Vanzetti, KKK)
Rather than having a specific section on the people of the 20’s, as you prepare your presentation you will also need to include information on the key people.
The final project will be done as a PowerPoint presentation, but all the information will need to be collected and the slides designed before you will actually enter anything onto the computer. Remember that the presentation must stand on its own; You will not be able to explain it as people watch.
If any of you would rather work alone, please see me and we should be able to work out some appropriate topic.
Dates: Mar. 16: Topic and group selected.
Mar. 20: Progress check including key points and people to be covered.
Mar. 23: Slides designed.
Mar. 23-5: Create program.
Mar. 27: 20’s Day - Come in costume.
