Depression Photography Project
As you wake up to head to GHS you realize the campus is dramatically different.
You walk up and only see old main and the old gym. Where the office is a tennis
court
where to funny looking students are playing with wood rackets in some strange
clothes.
You quickly figure out you have been thrown back into the Great Depression.
In order to ensure people will believe what you have see you take out your camera
and begin
photographing various sites of The Depression.
Your assignment is to create
a google presentation (or powerpoint) with pictures of The Depression. Your will need
to include the following information about each picture:
1. When and where was the photo taken?
2. What is the subject of the photo?
3. What was the significance of the photo during the Great Depression
4. Why did you chose this photo?
Do not forget to create a bibliography
if you get photos of the web. Your powerpoint needs to have at least 12 photos. Use the following websites to get started finding pictures.
