I'm doing a lesson on photographs of the Great Depression - teaching kids about the Great Depression through the photographs of Dorothea Lange and Walker Evans and other photographers. i.e.: http://www.english.illinois.edu/MAPS/depression/photoessay.htm I'm having kids go to the websites where these photos are on display and I'm going to be asking them some thought questions to help them look at the photos more closely. Can anyone think of some thought questions I could ask?

Months passed without even thinking about being imprisoned....I had never been so truly free in my life." - Malcolm X "Some kids go to the library ... Others to the street. But they can't go to the libraries if the libraries are closed." - Officer Dombranski, NYPD "The best morals kids get from any book is just the capacity to empathize with other people, to care about the characters and their feelings. So you don't have to write a preachy book to do that. You just have to make it a fun book with characters they care about, and they will become better people as a result." - Louis Sachar -------------------------------------------------------------------- Please note: All LM_NET postings are protected by copyright law.
