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.
