To gain a deeper understanding of the 1920s we are going to write a historical narrative.
In this narrative, you will assume the character of someone who lived during the 1920s. You will tell about life in the 1920s from the perspective of your character.
Possible narrative characters:
Al Capone or a gangster working for Al Capone or a rival to Al Capone
Flapper
A farmer in the Midwest
Black jazz musician – Male or Female
Baseball player – White or Negro League
Author/artist during the Harlem Renaissance
Sharecropper in the South
Bootlegger
Today we will examine pictures of each of the characters above to help narrow down your choices for the narrative.
As you examine the pictures relating to each character – answer the questions below on a separate sheet of paper. You should answer all four (4) questions for each of the stations.
1. Do the pictures make you feel the 1920s were a positive or negative time?
2. What specific details from the picture give you positive or negative feelings?
3. Is there anyone/anything in any of the pictures you can relate to? If yes what/why?
4. Would you consider this topic for your narrative? Why or why not?
(Note: if anyone has time. need to pass. I'm doing a another project so I don't have time to do this one.)

"when did you come, rahmun? " i asked him. "last evening," he said, "i was released from jail." the words struck harsh upon my ears. i had never before talked with one who had wounded his fellow, and my heart shrank within itself when i realised this; for i felt that the day would have been better-omened had he not turned up.

Lots of elementary school kids play sports after school. they play soccer, tennis, football, baseball, and even lacrosse. but i think that another great way to spend the afternoon is by playing a non-physical activity: chess. at our school we have a chess club that meets every week to play games and to learn about chess-related issues. chess is a wonderful game for many reasons. chess teaches students to be patient and not rush decisions. chess also teaches students how to strategize their future plans. and finally, chess teaches students the importance and necessity of sacrifice. chess can teach students just as much as any other sport. which sentence could best be added to this paragraph as a supporting detail? a) chess is not as fun as playing a sport outdoors might be. b) my father is very good at chess and plays a game with me every night. c) chess teaches students to think ahead about the consequences of their actions. d) other activities that are as fun as chess are painting, drawing, dancing, and acting.
