Part two:

Create a visual project of some kind that illustrates at least one specific ways that life in China changed after the Communist Revolution. Use the World Cultures book for your information.

Ideas: you could create a comic strip, a collage, a before and after illustration or a propaganda poster. You can hand draw, cut out pictures or use computers to complete this.

Grading: 1. Your illustration must clearly show a specific change to Chinese life.

2. Your illustration should be presented clearly and neatly. I won’t grade you on your artistic ability (in other words stick figures are fine), but I want to see effort.

Due: Wed, June 5th
