Earlier this week my classroom was transformed into a museum of student created projects about the 1920’s. The day was was filled with learning, laughter, and dancing! Students created projects based off a menu of options such as a scrapbook comparing the 1920’s to today, a monopoly board, a poster describing the best/worst times of the 1920’s, sports and heroes during the 1920’s, and so much more.
The only way they could get into the speakeasy (our classroom) was by figuring out the clue on the “barber shop” door. We had prohibition root beer and popcorn. Two groups of students performed the Charleston, one group performed a Jazz song, two boys dressed as 1920’s gangster’s, and another group of students acted. Overall, it was a wonderful day!
