Instructional Plan - Photo Shop Grade Level - High School (Gr 9-12) Content Area - Social Studies: US History Goals - 1. Students learn the details of a significant period in history 2. Students learn the long-term ramifications of an event in history. 3. Using Photo Shop and digital storytelling, students recreate historical events and determine the long-term ramifications.

Activities - 1. Students are given a timeline detailing a significant historical event. 2. Students, working in groups, use search engines and database tools to find documents and photographs of historical events. 3. Using Photo Shop, students alter historical photographs, historical documents, etc to change details of major events. 4. Students research the outcomes of major historical event and its short and long-term ramifications, and determine how changing this event would change history. a. What would have happened if Washington couldn't cross the Delaware river? b. What if Paul Revere was captured riding to the Old North Church? c. What other historical events would not have happened had the British won the revolution? d. What would that mean for us today? 5. Using a blog, Flickr/Photo Bucket, You Tube, or other resources, students collaboratively combine their photographs and research to create a digital story, "retelling" history and the short and long-term ramifications.
