Decades Extravaganza

Learning about other decades is more fun than what we imagined. Our great project for this semester was creating a decades display that would catch the eye of those who were walking by. Agai in teams, we decided on a decade to research. We were to investigate about the music, food, and fads and fashion of that decade. Then we took all of the information gathered and created a powerpoint and poster for our decade. We were to set up a display and make it attractive so that other people would be attarcted to it. There would be a poll on which decade present was the best.  In addition to the display, we also had to have a costume to go along with our decade. The decade that my group decided to research and represent was the 70's. We decided to go with a costume not of the fashion of that decade, but a popular series of that time, School House Rock. There were many people that did not know what we were dressed up as, but once they were told, they completely understood the theme. In the end, our decade did not win the poll, but we had a lot of fun completing the project and watching others.
This project was one that I really enjoyed completing. We were able to teach others and learn ourselves.

Pictures to come soon!
