How to Create A Project Using Blogs

How to Create a Project Using Blogs - Social Studies/U.S. History

1. Create a blog centered on events in United States history - this would include events centered around economic events (ex: Great Depression), geography (ex: acquisition of the Louisiana Territory), and/or history (ex: Vietnam War).
2. Write a brief history for the event, including why it happened, where it happened, when it happened, etc.
3. Explain some of the cause-and-effect relationships within the event (ex: Great Depression led to New Deal, etc.)
4. Find corresponding events in current history and/or explain similarities between the past event and a current event (ex: The Great Depression occurred during the 1930s, and we are currently experiencing a recession.)
