Women in the Civil War

Introduction

You are an archaeologist examining a battle site of the Civil War. You just came across a collection of relics that belonged to women serving in the war. Now you are going to create a museum exhibit that describes the service of the women using the artifacts that were found.

           

Task

Your task is to create a museum box. This is a presentation form that consists of items that would represent a topic or time period. You will have ten items that women used during the Civil War. With each of these there needs to be a caption describing or explaining the object.

Process

To start you will need research the duties women had during the civil war, you will be given suggested websites but you might have to find different websites as well. The websites will not give you that many pictures so you will need to find tham, also make sure you actually read the article. Then on google docs or Microsoft Word create a word document to create your project. You will then need to pick ten items to put in your museum box. For each of these you will need a picture and a caption. The information and pictures can be organized in any way, just make sure it is neat. 

Use these websites to find your information, but you will need to find your pictures by looking them up on google images.
