Time for a New Unit

Today we began a new unit. For the next eight weeks we will learning all about the 1920's and the cultural shift that occured during that time.

We will learn about:

• the fashions and how they were driven by the Women's Movement
• Prohibition
• Jazz (its birth, sound, instruments, and famous musicians)
• the Mafia
• silent films (characteristics and techniques)
• the Women's Movement

This unit will culminate in our Silent Film Festival on January 30th. Be sure to put it on your calendar so you won't miss the fun!
