Amish: The Gentle People

1999
The goal of our website was to teach students about other cultures and different lifestyles. In order to do that, we had to come up with a topic. We came up with the Amish, because they seem so interesting because of their way of life. We also had to come up with educational and fun ideas. We went to libraries to get books for information, and we put our heads together for creative ideas. We had to learn a lot about certain computer programs. The one thing that was most interesting and educational that we learned about was how the Amish have started to use technology. Everything we learned in school never mentioned anything about technology. We hope you enjoy our website!
