World War I Podcast 
In this assignment, you will be a time-traveling radio reporter going back to the World War I period to create a 2-3 minute “interview” about a situation or event in the war. This can be any event that we have covered in class. Examples: you might interview a survivor or witness of the sinking of the Lusitania, a soldier about the conditions on the front, a person describe the effects of rationing at home, or report on one of the key battles. Along with the podcast, submit a typed list of resources and an explanation of why you chose your topic. Be creative! You may use music, sound effects, or any other relevant sound clips to “make it real.”
