You will be getting two movies for the upcoming Great Depression as well as two movies for World War II. I would also like to have you watch two movies for the Civil Rights period and one more additional movie for the modern era. The Civil Rights movies are more important so we will have to see how much time we have.
We will continue with the Indian tribe presentations this following week and you will be getting your Great Depression movies as well.
I will have a listing of your research on early rock stars as well. I plan to give you two stars so you can compare and contrast their music and their lives. Should be interesting and fun.
Don't forget to blog, blog, blog. |
