Interactive Periodic Tables of the New Deal and World War II
Twelve years ago the Roosevelt Presidential Library and Museum produced the Periodic Table of the New Deal and the Periodic Table of World War II as posters suitable for display and use in the classroom. The idea was to give teachers a simple tool to explain the scope of the Roosevelt Administration’s work helping America face these two enormous crises.
Additional images will be added to FRANKLIN on an ongoing basis throughout the coming years.
