This semester we were given the opportunity to 'travel through time', and it was a blast. We broke into groups of about 3 or 4 and created a decades project. Each group was to find information on a decade and present it. My group was the 50's. We filled our presentation with artifacts that I found from my Grandma and Grandpa including my Grandpa's Air Force uniform that he wore in Korea. We also used a lot of things from I Love Lucy.
A adults, we enjoyed every minute of this project. I was able to learn a lot about not only my decade, but the other decades as well. I think this project gives children a hands-on experience that they wouldn't learn from a text book. Letting them dress up and find artifacts from their decade is also something they may not be familiar with.
