History- You Decide

How do we decide what makes "HIStory"? What gets taught? What gets forgotten?

Create a one page lesson about an event that has happened during your lifetime that might be taught in the future. decide what you think is an important event in Texas, United States, or World events. Examples could include:

- 9/11 World Trade Center Attacks

- War in Afghanistan

- Arab Spring (recent revolutions in Middle East)

- Japan Tsunami

Create a background story, include a printed or drawn picture, and provide three 'assessment questions' at the end. You must tell about the cause of the event, location, and effects (100 word minimum).

You can create up to three lessons for three separate replacement 100's, or 10 extra points on a major grade. I will accept them until next Friday, 2/17.
