Counting History by Tens

As adults our class learned a lot from this project. Imagine what could be in the classroom! Growing up we often remembered reading from textbook with the majority of our history lessons. The idea behind the decades project allows students to co-construct knowledge. Less background knowledge would be brought into this process, but instead as students research they share their understanding with each other.
Our class really enjoyed the project, even dressing the part was fun.

50's






60's






70's






80's






90's






Even if we didn't live in one of these decades we were still able to relive them. It was great talking to family and friends about their memories from back in the day and make connections with important event of the time with important people in our lives today.
