FURNITURE FLIP CHART ASSIGNMENT

NAME______PERIOD______DATE______

DUE:______

American furniture styles were greatly influenced by the world especially European countries. We have studied 10 different furniture styles that include a wealth of information and characteristics. Your assignment is to create a flipchart showing pictures and important characteristics of each style. Keep in mind that some styles have limited information and are not as popular in our society today while others have an enormous amount of furniture selections and characteristics. With that in mind, feel free to use multiple pages when needed. You may use magazine pictures, pictures of pieces that may be found in your own house, grandma’s house, a relative or friend. The camera pictures are to be printed on photo paper only. Do not download or copy any pictures from the internet.
