The FDR Library in Hyde Park has an exhibit on FDR’s legendary First 100 Days. Accompanying the exhibit is a flyer, available on-line in .pdf, that is tailor made for a quick PowerPoint on the events.

A 24-page guide to the exhibit is also available, with even more details — though a lot of the images would be more difficult to put into a PowerPoint or Keynote presentation.
For government classes, these guides might offer a project on comparing Roosevelt’s first three or four months to Obama’s first months in office.
I’m wondering about printing at least a class set of the guide . . .
