A good understanding of History includes an understanding of Culture. The culture of the 1960’s in the U.S. was a culture of radical change. Students will be assigned to groups and given Primary Documents to analyze Historical events that affected the culture of the U.S. at this time. Students will then be given free reign to search the internet for videos, music, journal articles, pictures, art, ect. from the time period to further their research and understanding. The group will collaboratively write an essay (3-5) pages on the culture of the 60’s and the Historical events that influenced these cultural trends. Finally, each group will use the pictures, videos, music, and art they find during their research to create either a Virtual Collage (Power Point Presentation) or a traditional poster Collage. Groups will present the Thesis of their papers, as well as their collages, during presentations the following week.
