Assign your students in groups of three or four and have them create a video based on three important events in Theodore Roosevelt's life and background. Students should be encouraged to use costumes, props and multiple locations. The video should be no longer than seven minutes. The video should be named and include end credits. Music is encouraged but not required.
Study Theodore Roosevelt's presidential achievements by making a slide show presentation of at least 10 slides. In the presentation, there should be a timeline identifying major events, such as date of swearing in, term length and important acts. The presentation should include transitions, and slides should follow a "five-by-five rule": no more than five lines of information and no more than five words per line.
Explain how, when Theodore Roosevelt was a young boy, he was a birdwatcher and kept a log of the birds he saw. Ask students to research more into Roosevelt's hobby and provide some information about how, where and with what Roosevelt went birdwatching. In addition, ask students to create a log of their own birdwatching moments. Ask them to record some information about the bird they watched and do some research to see what information they can find. Have them record it in a log that includes a sketch of the bird.
Ask students to create a map using markers, colors and a poster board. The map should include a legend and needs to identify important locations for Theodore Roosevelt. The map should identify the important locations using a star next to the name of each location. On a separate index card, students need to note the important locations and write a paragraph about why that location is important to Theodore Roosevelt.
