Progressive Solutions: Report Card

You have read through the problems and solutions during the Progressive Era.

Some issues were handled better than others: the government helped and laws were created. Some issues had little progress.

​

​How did they do?

You will choose TWO issues. For each issue, you will "grade" how well Progressives solved their problems.

You will rate the issues on an A-F scale.

Report their grade!

Grade with the following in mind:

A: Fantastic! Many laws were created, and there was a lot of good changes.

​B: Some laws were created to help the issues, and a few changes were made.
C: One or two laws were made to attempt to fix the problem, but there was little change.
F: The government did little to help this issue, despite best efforts.

On the next TWO slides...

1. State the issue you have chosen.

2. State the grade you are giving (A-F).

3. Explain what the problems were using your notes made on the first page. (1-2 setences)

4. Explain why you gave it the grade that you did, with specific examples from your notes if possible.

Example:

I have chosen to grade Temperance. I give this issue a B. Many people were suffering from abuse due to overuse of alcohol. The movement eventually led to passing the 18th Amendment. I gave this a B because it solved the issue of alcohol, but more problems were created.
