President Harry Truman Interview Activity

Students complete an interview activity to review Harry Truman's presidency. They first answer 5 history based questions, then they "interview" Truman after becoming president (5 questions and answers), and then they conduct his last interview prior to his death (5 questions and answers). The last task is a bonus creative opportunity. The answers are included where appropriate and this would be great for a sub!

Sample questions include:
--Identify the event that these images are related to and explain them. Which you think impacted Truman’s presidency more and why? 
--Explain the purpose of the Fair Deal and identify some of its characteristics. Was it more or less successful than the New Deal and why?
--What is your ultimate goal as president?
--What do you think will be your biggest challenge in achieving your goals?
--Do you have any regrets from your time in office?
