Prohibition Party

The week before break, the 8th graders finished off their 1920s unit with a Prohibition Party.  Students researched an important figure from the 1920s and came dressed up as that person.  They each gave a biographical speech about their topic.  We turned the classroom into a speakeasy and students danced to 1920s jazz and had root beer and ginger ale.  This week, students began their Great Depression unit with a simulation about how the stock market works and the events leading up to the crash of 1929.

Questions for your 8th grader:

  • Is investing in the stock market worth the risk?
  • Tell me about the cycle that happened after the stock market crash of 1929.
