Great Activity
One of our requirements this year is that we have to partner with another class that is not in our group (English, Electives, Math, etc.). This worked perfectly for what I wanted to do.
Versatile resource

This is great as a slide show project and an introduction to presenting a project. I also was able to easily adapt this to become an essay to make it more cross curricular friendly.
This resource was exactly what I needed to review EOC topics
