The Power of Images — Photographic Analysis Activity

Photographs and visual images can help us understand history better by giving us a context for the events.

Review the following 6 images, and try to decide which of the following did not happen in the year, 1969.

This activity was originally conceived for use on a Ceiva electronic picture frame. The first round of photos were all posted on the first week, giving viewers the chance to review the photos and read the captions. The second round of photos (in which dates and details are given for each photo) were posted the second week. The images are sized for the Ceiva frame, and can be copied directly and posted to a Ceiva account.
This activity can also be used directly from this website, or by printing each page and reviewing printed images with learners.
