This lesson contains:
- A starter that recalls the Wall Street Crash and the Depression.
- An introduction to Roosevelt and his election campaign to solve the Depression. This includes a quote about a New Deal. Students might consider ways he might help the economy recover.
- An activity to study a series of information sheets. Students can have these in groups or move around the room. They use the info to complete a worksheet with the different ‘alphabet agencies’ that were created by Roosevelt to solve the problem. Students record what each tried to achieve.
- A task to study information about the effects of the New Deal on different social groups in the USA. Students then weigh up whether all groups benefitted, or not and why. There is extended writing to be done on this, guided on the board.
- A plenary to match the alphabet agency to the job it did.
