Chicopee Comprehensive High School
The Roaring 20’s (Postwar
World War I & the Jazz Age)
Students will explore the youth culture of this time period and learn how events
following the “Great War” led to gangster crime, women’s rights, and the Black
Renaissance. Activities might include samplings of period dance music, clothing
to try on, learning some slang from the period, and examining artifacts.
