 * [|Victorian England]-I use this project with **//Jane Eyre, A Tale of Two Cities//** or other **Victorian poetry...**take a walking tour, look into the life of a family, investigate all aspects of Victorian life. I have students research this site and then create an original "journal" style writing based on the perspective of one of the family members (i.e. a daughter preparing for a marriage, a mother organizing the holiday feast, a family preparing to bury a loved one, and so on.) This writing could be posted to a wiki. I had my students word process this document before I had access to technology. A video journal could also be created depending on how much time you have. Here is the document I used a few years ago (needs updated-modify it as you wish)--[[file:Victorian Web site writing.doc]]
