Twentieth Century Decade Box


Fifth Stop: America

Mission: Your group will choose a decade and each member of the group will study two events or people.  Each member must choose different topics.  The topics must be approved by Mr. Bishop before you begin.  Then, each person will create a PowerPoint slide demonstrating your knowledge of the topic.  The slides need to be printed two per page to fit properly into the display box.  Lastly, your group will print the slides, tape them together and create your display box.
