#AAPIHeritageMonth coming to a close. Here's a memory of simpler times: celebrating #Tet back in the day at #AragonBallroom in #Chicago. Food, music, games, fancy attire, & the original Nguyen crew. #LunarNewYear #Vietnamese #NY #80s #90s #AAPI

Fusion 30: Thirtieth Time’s the Charm. One. Week. Away. @WHSactivities @FusionWhs @teachwritenow

Had a awesometime in Nguyens class. I learned that the 1920s culture had a lot of aura, Especially the gansgsters. Music like jazz was considered by some that it was the devils music. Sports was prolly the biggest source of entertainment. #NguyenALC @teachwritenow

Had a blast at the gatsby! I learned that Al Capone lead the biggest alcohol ring! @teachwritenow #NguyenALC

@teachwritenow #NguyenALC Today i learned about how cars didnt have windshield wipers or blinkers in the 1920s. I also learned about some famous athletes, organized crime, and prohibition.

@teachwritenow #NguyenALC Today I learned that the alternative to drinking alcohol in the 1920’s was eating ice cream and soft drinks.

Congratulations to Senior CF Grant Scheuerman for receiving the Howard Lester Award for Wheeling HS. The Howard Lester Award recognizes a student for athletic achievement, GPA, character, and service. We are proud of you, Grant #FlyTheW

@teachwritenow #NguyenALC One fun fact is that jello was a popular dessert in 1920’s parties because it was easy to make (fridges were becoming more accessible!).

@teachwritenow #NguyenALC Something I learned today was that in the 1920s Jazz was considered devilish and evil music

1920s project #NguyenALC. @teachwritenow. I learned that the average 15 year old in the 1920s consumed nearly 7 gallons of pure alcohol in a year.

@teachwritenow #NguyenALC What I Learned is how in the prohibition era you had people who wanted to drink created places called speakeasy’s and Saloons so that they can drink illegally and how prohibition didn’t really end it but only made people want to drink more.

One thing I learned today was about Art of 1920s. Surrealism is an art style of 1920s that created dream like images. It was so much fun to have party in Mr. Nguyen’s class!! @teachwritenow #nguyenALC

@teachwritenow #NguyenALC. One thing I learned is that men’s fashion was all about being simple. Instead of being a 3 piece suit, they were only 2 piece

@teachwritenow #NguyenALC today i was able to learn about so many new facts on the 1920’s. One thing that i learned that stuck to me was how most of the organized crime in the 20’s was started by prohibition.

@teachwritenow #NguyenALC One interesting fact I learned was that in tennis it helped women’s fashion and brought freedom to what women wore by wearing short skirts and short sleeve shirts.

@teachwritenow #NguyenALC Learned about alot today! I found it interesting how Babe Ruth revolutionized baseball and I also learned alot about fashion such as pearl necklaces

@teachwritenow #NguyenALC I learned that many people during this time had many rebellious acts. But, people also got very creative ideas with music and art through these things. This time period was when many different types of fashion was created and many still wear now! - Lisa
