For this project, you will pick an aspect of the Roaring 20's and create a broadside (Poster) - You will need to take a picture of the creation and upload it with your answers to the reflection questions.

Topics could be:

A) Famous person of the 20's (Gangster, Jazz artist, Athlete, Poet, Writer) Could be a flyer highlighting the person or Wanted poster Must include key info....

With this project if you have a gangster then the poster should contain:

Stats of the person, crimes committed, associates, known locations, what made them a gangster, how they influenced the cultural morality shift of 1920's, an image of the person, if you choose to include more that's up to you but those are the key thing I would want to see.

B) Advertisement of new Invention (any invention from the 20's, using slang terms in add) 

C) Speakeasy circular 

D) Volstead Act enforcement flyer (18th Amendment)

E) Swankey Fashion

F) Old Money Vs Newly Rich spending 

Be creative but put your Historical skills to use.

 

Reflection:

1. How does your creation offer insight into the 1920's?

2. What group of people would benefit most from your creation?

3. Is there a shift in morality or culture depicted in your creation? Explain!
