"I found the origins of the various solo dances (Mashed Potato, Swim, etc) very interesting - contracted by the US government to try and fight back against the raciness of the swing dancing. I want to investigate that further! I think it would be…"
"I found it very interesting that this is the first era where individual expression is encouraged through dancing. The Roaring 20s is one of my favorite time periods to teach, so there are lots of fun things I look forward to incorporating into my…"
"I don't see much of a place in my classroom for the dances we learned in this era (Jump Jim Jones and Lucky 7). They are a little basic for a high school classroom. But I would love to discuss the the Sousa music and his influence on many of the…"
"Loved loved loved the dancing with Noemia. I think we are all going to be battling each other next year with our requests to get her into our class. : )

"I would use this presentation at the beginning of the year to prep my students for their 10 page research papers. They must research some aspect of American History in the 20th century, so I tried to use examples that were relevant to our class but…"
"I examined the NARA lesson plan Photographs of Lewis Hine: Documentation of Child Labor for two reasons. One, the gilded age and progressive era are my favorite time period to teach in US History, and two, I can use an adapted version of this…"
