When we began studying the Roaring Twenties and the Great Depression, we analyzed two different songs: "Charleston Party" (which reflects the spirit of the 1920's), and "Brother, Can You Spare a Dime?" (which reflects the hardship and despair of the 1930's). As we finished our unit of study for these decades, students created CD covers for each of the two songs, showing elements of each time period that they learned about. I put these together into slide shows to go along with each of the songs:
"Charleston Party"
"Brother, Can You Spare a Dime?"

i really enjoyed this project. i really like coloring the different covers of the music albums. i also enjoyed seeing the different view points of all the others students of the 1920s and 1930s.
