Assignment
In groups, students will prepare a TIME Magazine called the The Roaring 20’s. Groups will be required to write at least 3 (three) articles for 4 (four) sections. Nation, Society and Business & Economy are the three sections that you have to do and you have flexibility in your last section. These articles must include factual information that is obtained through research in your textbook or other resources (other books, internet, etc). While students must base the majority of their writing on factual events and information, there can be fiction and there is freedom in this project to be original, creative and adventurous. To document your research, each group must submit a correctly formatted works cited page to be turned in to the teacher. Each article must also be accompanied by an illustration. The illustration may be copied and cut from another source, hand-drawn, or with clip art. Each student must participate. Although the group will be graded as a whole, the teacher may give individual grades if necessary. This will count for a project/test grade. The following criteria will be required for each group:
