2. Pretend you were a newspaper reporter alive at that time. Write a newspaper article using one of the photographs as the center of your article. Try to include, What, Where, Why, When, and How in your story.
 
3. Write an imaginary dialogue between two people in the photograph. Make sure to use emotionally powerful words that express the feelings of the characters.
