Social studies project ideas?

Question

Aztec sacrifices
Vlad the Impaler
Torture devices

I know...kinda dark-ish ..but I think they're interesting. Which do you think would be best to do a project on...or do you have any new ideas?

Answer 1

right now, in current events, they made this thing that is like a laser, and makes people feel like they're burning up, like on fire. they're using it on Iraqians. but also, those medival torture things where they pull your limbs... ouch, but, yeah. good luck

Answer 2

well, torture devices would interest people

but my personal favorite social studies project to do (for American history) was the great molasses spill in Boston. Just as interesting, less gruesome.
