Description

Inquiry Overview:

Students will examine the lives of individuals who have made significant contributions to society and culture in Germany and beyond. Students will then use what they learn to create trading cards (modeled after baseball cards) highlighting important details of that person's life, including their specific achievements. Students will then reflect on the concept of zeitgeist for these change-makers and in their own lives.
