Photo Lit Collage TKM Blog Post Instructions

Students will come to the Blogger website to write their reflection on the photo lit collage they created. This blog should be between 200 to 500 words long going into what story the students' pictures tell, it should explain how the captions they made connect to To Kill A Mockingbird, and have a brief description of The Great Depression. If students used a photo archive other than the one I provided, they must explain why it appealed to them. Also in this blog, students should try to think about how the real Great Depression in Alabama affected the fictional story of To Kill A Mockingbird. Blogs will be uploaded to the course website where students can earn extra credit for commenting on each other's blogs. Up to five points will be added for extra credit. Upon completion of their blog posts, students will share what they wrote along with their completed photo collages, which should be printed out and held up for the class to see. The total project is worth 100 points.
