THE GREAT DEPRESSION
![Page 2: (In pictures) - Kyrene School District...The Great Depression was a severe worldwide economic depression in the decade before World War II. The timing of the Great Depression varied](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052100/603a4291343a142355601743/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
The Great Depression was a severe worldwide economic
depression in the decade before World War II. The
timing of the Great Depression varied across nations,
but in most countries it started in about 1929 and lasted
until the late 1930s or early 1940s. It was the longest,
most widespread, and deepest depression of the 20th
century.
WHAT WAS THE GREAT
DEPRESSION?

Photographers, like that
of Dorthea Lange, were
paid by newspapers and
the U.S. federal
government to take
pictures of the Depression
in order to show other
Americans just how bad it
was, and inspire them to
help others in need.
WHY DID PEOPLE TAKE PHOTOS
IN THE DEPRESSION?

1. I will instruct you and your partner to look at a
certain image in this presentation, and then I want
you to imagine that you and your partner were the
photographers who captured that photo during the
Great Depression.
2. On your warm-up papers I want you to come up with
a title for your picture, and a reason for why you took
the image.
3. Be creative with this – you will have to use your
imaginations!
