Great Depression Blog Assignment

Complete a post for your time travel blog about your time spent living through the Great Depression.

  1. Select a photograph from the great depression.
  2. Pretend that you are one of the people in the photograph.
  3. Write about your life. Make sure to include information about what your life was like before the stock market crash, how you felt and what you did during the Great Depression, and your thoughts about President Roosevelt and the New Deal.
You will be graded on the historical accuracy, detail and quality of writing. Please proofread your blog entry before you post. This is an assignment for class, so you should use proper punctuation, spelling and capitalization!
