SEC: follow-up research on Vietnam war book

[Rena Deutsch <renadeutsch@WORLDNET.ATT.NET>]

Our students are reading Tim O'Brien's book, "The Things They Carried" (a
book of fictional episodes about Vietnam war and its aftermath) in 10th
grade English classes . One of the teachers was considering a "follow-up"
assignment in which students are given a particular battle, etc., of the
war to research. The original idea was that they would write a short paper
on the topic.

However, we are now looking for an assignment that is somewhat more
creative.

If you have any assignments that your students have done related to any
aspect of the Vietnam War, (in English or history class) I/we would love to
hear about them!

I will post a hit if anyone is interested.
