Then and Now - How is Life Different Today?
Students create a powerpoint to compare objects they use now to objects their parents or grandparents used in the past to do the same things. Students search for clipart in PowerPoint to show two objects their parents or grandparents used in daily life. Students describe what each object is and what it is used for (listening to music, making a phone call, etc.). Students search for clipart in PowerPoint to show two objects they use now in daily life for the same purposes. Students describe what each object is and what it is used for.
This lesson plan integrates technology into the History - Social Science curriculum.
