Name Period 1920s Unit Activity Including the use of Noodle Tools, Piktochart and QR Codes The 1920s was a time of tremendous change in America. It is oftentimes referred to as the Roaring Twenties due to the all changes America experienced. It was an age of dramatic social and political change. For the first time, more Americans lived in cities than on farms. The nation s total wealth more than doubled between 1920 and 1929, and this economic growth swept many Americans into an affluent but unfamiliar consumer society. People from coast to coast bought the same goods (thanks to nationwide advertising and the spread of chain stores), listened to the same music, did the same dances and even used the same slang! Many Americans were uncomfortable with this new, urban, sometimes racy mass culture ; in fact, for many even most people in the United States, the 1920s brought more conflict than celebration. However, for a small handful of young people in the nation s big cities, the 1920s were roaring indeed.
