The 1920s is known as the Roaring 20's as it was a decade full of political, economic, and social growth. Women were challenging their traditional roles, politicians were backtracking into an era of limits and scandal, Americans were buying and spending money like never before in our history. In this unit, you will be working in a group to collaborate, research, use technology, and create a digital newspaper.

You will be assigned a group and the details of the project are listed there. At the end of each day, you will need to post a response on our class blog that is linked through the home page of this wiki. Below are the benchmarks you need to be working towards each day. Also, be sure to check out the rubric tab so you are aware of exactly what is expected of you and your group members. Please ask if you have questions!

Before uploading your final projects, save all of your work each day in your "U" Drive. Create a special 1920s folder so you can find all of your work easily.
