Billy Joel's History Lesson!

I received this from Betty M. awhile back and it is fabulous. Here's your lesson for the day, week, month if you click on every person, event over the past 50 years or so. You'll learn tons or it may refresh your memory. Either way, this creation is awesome. I sent it to Al for him to use in his Social Studies class as he can cover a lot of ground in just one song. I even came up with an interactive activity that he can do with his kids. I hope they have fun with it. I love doing lesson plans. Give me a topic and I am figuring out a way to creatively teach it.

So, take a click and look see and you will be amazed. So, would the piano man, Billy Joel.

SO WORTH LISTENING TO!

Whether you are a Billy Joel fan or not, you probably remember his great song "We Didn't Start the Fire."
Here it is, set to pictures- very, very cool.

It's a fabulous flashback through the past half century. Pictures of events that had long been forgotten are now quickly remembered.

Turn up volume, sit back and enjoy a review of 50 years of history in less than 3 minutes! Thanks to Billy Joel and some guy from the University of Chicago with too much time to google!

Gin, I hope you can figure this out, if not, call me or I can show you.

Where were you born in this time line of happenings?

May some of our history not repeat itself. Certainly mine.
