Y11 GCSE afterschool lesson

Hi,


Well as snow stopped play this afternoon here is a quick rundown of the lesson.



You will need to watch the slideshow above and then do the following before next week please:

1) Complete the matching activity on slide 2 - the causes of the Depression to remind you what was going on.

2) Look up the Alphabet agencies online at wikipedia or here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/gcsebitesize/history/mwh/usa/newdealrev1.shtml

or here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/gcsebitesize/history/mwh/usa/

This is also worth a look at: http://www.schoolshistory.org.uk/gcse/activities/usa3.html

3) Write some notes about at least 4 of the Agencies including the AAA.

4) Write a definition of what the Fireside chats were.

5) Write a short paragraph saying whether you think the New Deal was a success, post it here as a comment if you wish me to check it before next week.


Cheers, Sir
