Tobacco bag stringing: Secondary activity six

By Pauline S. Johnson

In this activity for grades 7–12, students will read and evaluate primary source stories from the Federal Writer’s Project, available on the American Memory site of the Library of Congress. Students will be able to learn about the tobacco bag stringing families’ lives in a story form. This should be completed after the introductory activities.
