Bound for Glory: America in Color - Library of Congress
Grades
8 to 12
tag(s): 1930s (40), 1940s (70), 20th century (168), great depression (32), images (266), photography (135)
In the Classroom
It's interesting how viewing the images in color makes the viewer feel as though the Great Depression was something far more recent - perhaps due to the dated feeling of black and white images. In a discussion of the Great Depression, spend some time comparing these images and the traditional black and white images on an interactive whiteboard or projector. Ask students about the differences and if one is more revealing or not. This can also lead into a discussion on the reliability of primary sources and the effects of seeing something rather than reading it.You must be registered and logged in to add items to your favorites.

Our 100 Favorite DIY Christmas Decorations Ideas - HGTV
Grades
2 to 6In the Classroom
The third topic is 75 (80) Christmas Crafts for Kids. On an interactive whiteboard or with a projector, use Padlet to choose several of the crafts you and your students think they might enjoy making. Even before having students choose the craft they want to work on, start gathering materials. The materials don't have to be for the craft they are making; create a "general materials" box or area in your classroom. Many of the ideas use inexpensive or free materials! For those who don't, think creatively (use paper plates instead of real plates). You and your students may want to plan on walking around the school, and they can walk through their neighborhoods to find twigs and such. Perhaps some of the families have old yarn they can donate. Allow individuals and small groups to choose the craft they would like to make.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member
