The+Progressive+Era+Project+11-12

The major assessment for this unit will be the creation of a newspaper about the times and events of the Progressive Era. I will be assigning you groups for this project. While you will be given some time to work in class on this assignment, you will need to spend some "outside of class" time to work on this.
