This activity is meant to be completed at the start of a Great Depression Inquiry unit. Students will have had a BRIEF introduction to the Depression but will use this gallery walk to create more questions for an inquiry project. First, I use a quick depression simulation then I show a short video clip that discusses the causes of the Depression.
You don't have to use this product in conjunction with an inquiry project however. You can use it as an anticipation activity.
