But this project is your chance to do something that isn\u2019t wifi-enabled but is a thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For Project 7, you can create anything you like that has to do with your war, and can demonstrate some sort of argument about it. You could sew a battle flag. You could paint a picture. You could draw a comic. You could reinterpret some primary sources in a new and interesting way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can see a few ideas&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/pastispresent.org\/2020\/good-sources\/artists-in-the-aas-archive-august-2020\/\">here<\/a>&nbsp;about how others have gotten creative with ideas and sources from the period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Basically, the sky\u2019s the limit here. Write a song! Make a video! Sew a period costume! Bake a cake! I don\u2019t care. Just do something with your hands or your voice or your body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then write a blog post about your thing, explaining what it is and why it\u2019s an interesting way to learn about your war. Make sure you include lots of pictures (take pictures along the way too-\u2013process pictures are cool!).
