Lecture: Goals of the New Deal
Objective: Students will be able to explain the goals of the New Deal and the accomplishments of the First Hundred Days.
Activity: Briefly go over the background of the Depression up to the Roosevelt Administration including causes, its effect on people (the Bonus Army, the Dust Bowl, bread lines, Hoovervilles, etc.) and the reaction of the Hoover Administration.
Deliver a lecture over the goals of the New Deal: relief, recovery, and reform. List and discuss the accomplishments of the First Hundred Days of the Roosevelt administration. Be careful in your lecture not to associate the accomplishments with specific acts and agencies. This would compromise later portions of the lesson
