The Beginnings of the USSR

Students read an article about life in a factory town in the 1930s Soviet Union. Students took notes on each section of the text:
  • Living Conditions
  • Working Conditions
  • Industrial Production
  • Influence of the Communist Party
After the reading students began working on a postcard to Joseph Stalin from the perspective of the man (American, John Scott) in the story. Students drew images from the article for the front of the postcard and a message to Stalin about things from the article for the back of the postcard.

HOMEWORK:
