A Crossroads Resource
Unit X: The Age of Franklin D. Roosevelt
Question/Problem 2: How did Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal change the
role of the government in the United States, and how did it come to the
aid of individuals?
Directions: New Deal Collage
During the Roosevelt administration, there were many New Deal programs
that were instituted or agencies were created in an attempt to solve
problems. Your assignment is to create a collage that represents each of
those programs.
- The collage should include one or more pictures for each program or
agency. Look in magazines and newspapers for pictures that relate
in some way to the goals and achievements of the ten
programs/agencies. (Example: a picture of a dam might be a
representation of the work done by the TVA.)
- Place the pictures in an attractive fashion on an oversized piece of
paper.
- Neatly label what each picture means to you, including the name of
the agency or program (abbreviations may be used) and a short
description of the goal or achievement being symbolized by the
picture.
You may refer to the "Collage Criteria for Assessment" for further
instructions.
