Task 2: Explain what you are thinking/feeling while looking at the photo. 

Task 3. Create ONE question about the 1920s and/or the photo you chose.                        ]]> 2023-09-15 13:57:49 UTC https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2705970965 https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706126508 He looks creepy and crazy, looks like he's about to laugh evilly. Where is Al Capone's lost fortune buried? ]]> 2023-09-15 15:53:04 UTC https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706126508 avamartin11 https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706129295 This makes me nervous because he is so high up and doesnt care about falling, and is only hanging on the edge slightly.
I wonder why he choose to do this, and who was the person taking the photo?]]> 2023-09-15 15:54:28 UTC https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706129295 https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706129679 The photo makes me think that life was a lot harder in the 1920s. I wonder how people got rich in the 1920s?]]> 2023-09-15 15:54:48 UTC https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706129679 aneliesepercyz https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706130388 Task 2: I'm wondering why a man is hanging off the side of a building. It looks like he's a mail carrier, so why would he be hanging off the side? It also doesn't look like he's there by accident, so his intention was to be there.

Task 3: Why is that man hanging off the side of a building and why does he look happy about it?]]> 2023-09-15 15:55:24 UTC https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706130388 https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706131697 These people look like they are playing jazz which relates to the 1920's because that era was known as the jazz age.
One question I have is why was Jazz so popular during that time?]]> 2023-09-15 15:56:08 UTC https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706131697 https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706131769 I am thinking that Bugs Moran was not that bad only considering the smile on his face. I wonder if he was a friendly person outside of his gang.]]> 2023-09-15 15:56:12 UTC https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706131769 https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706132578 The cars look a lot different compared to the cars we have today. How were cars made in the 1920's?]]> 2023-09-15 15:56:34 UTC https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706132578 https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706132716 This photo makes me think about what Al Capone's crime "sprees" really did to affect other people's lives including the people he worked with. Did Al Capone ever kill family to get what he wanted?]]> 2023-09-15 15:56:40 UTC https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706132716 nathandonorfio https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706132894 It looks almost modern and has cars in the road and the streets look almost similar  to what it would look like today
How did the government try to enforce prohibition?]]> 2023-09-15 15:56:47 UTC https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706132894 gregorykopka https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706133261 In this image I see many people and cars. I also see people crossing the street. It makes me nervous as there appears to be a lack of order in regards to traffic laws. This image makes me wonder when stoplights and crosswalks began to be created.]]> 2023-09-15 15:57:01 UTC https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706133261 https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706133737 These two people look dressed up and professional, it makes the tone seem serious. I wonder why everyone wore weird hats]]> 2023-09-15 15:57:23 UTC https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706133737 https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706133754  - This image makes me think that cars were really important to the 1920's because they created a new mode of transportation and were a way people could get to their jobs, stores, and other places faster.

- I wonder how much a car cost in the 1920's and how many people could afford one?]]> 2023-09-15 15:57:24 UTC https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706133754 https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706134848 This picture is showing a busy city in the 1920s and it makes me realize how different it was then vs now. This makes me feel like life was a lot harder in the 1920s because of the difference in cars and how to go places. I wonder what was more normal, driving or walking?]]> 2023-09-15 15:57:50 UTC https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706134848 oliviagawel https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706134853 This photo makes me so surprised. I think it's crazy that they would measure the distance between the bathing suit and knee. I wonder how often people got sent home for their suit being too short?]]> 2023-09-15 15:57:51 UTC https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706134853 https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706135199 This photo makes me think that it was extremely common for people to go out to places like bars and speakeasies in the 1920s. This is likely part of the "roaring twenties" nickname given to the decade. I wonder why there was so much partying and so many new forms of entertainment. Did it have to do with the economic success of the period?]]> 2023-09-15 15:58:08 UTC https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706135199 aidenheeran https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706135621 When I saw this it made me think about how unfair the workforce was before many laws were implemented to make them more fair.

Were there any specific employers in mind when this was made?]]> 2023-09-15 15:58:29 UTC https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706135621 https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706136489 Task 2: This photo makes me realize that beauty standards and makeup were very different in the 1920's compared to now. 

Task 3: How did they make makeup and how is it different to how it is now? ]]> 2023-09-15 15:59:14 UTC https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706136489 https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706137196 When I see this picture I think of this little boy helping his family showing that back in the day even the little kids were helping a lot. 
Was it normal for kids to help a lot?]]> 2023-09-15 15:59:52 UTC https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706137196 https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706139957 This photo makes me think if the great depression didn't make them legalize the sale of alcohol then would all the boot legging? Because once prohibition started all these gangs started to form and make business off of selling alcohol.]]> 2023-09-15 16:01:44 UTC https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706139957 taylorclynes https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706142181 This photo is showing men pouring alcohol to give to people. The 1920's were during the prohibition era which makes me think that these were gang members because a lot of gangs in the 1920's sold alcohol for cheap. This also makes me think that committing crimes were a lot easier in the 1920's because a lot of people broke the law during the prohibition era by selling and buying alcohol.
How did people not get caught when breaking the law?]]> 2023-09-15 16:03:36 UTC https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706142181 luciaperez25 https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706145304 This photo makes me wonder why women had to wear those hats?  What were they made of?

Why did women have to dress like that?]]> 2023-09-15 16:06:14 UTC https://padlet.com/southingtonschools/81efp960xas440k/wish/2706145304
