What If?
20 Points
Your Task: Create a textbook page showing how history would have changed if one major detail had changed such as if King John had written the Magna Carta to grow his power instead of his nobles writing it to grow their own.
Instructions:
1. Choose an event from this unit and change a major detail of it.
a. For example: “Magna Carta Makes King John More Powerful”
2. Write a one-paragraph summary of how this change may have happened.
3. Write a one-paragraph summary of what you think would have happened in history if this detail had changed in history.
4. Show the two paragraphs to your teacher.
Do not move on until you have completed steps 1-5 above and shown them to your teacher.
5. After your teacher approves your paragraphs create a new page for your textbook that teaches your version of the event.
6. The page should have color in appropriate places and be neatly written. It should look like a real page from your textbook (except handwritten). You do it on a computer if you choose. [example below]
