 Today in class we were assigned a sort of small project called a visual poem. For this assignment we had to make a poem that was similar in style to The Red Wheelbarrow which uses good imagery for how short of a poem it is. I used the same format as the previous poem as a way to make mine however my image was of a tree with light seeping through the top. I actually found this assignment to be somewhat easy and enjoyable at the same time

 Today in class we were given a newsela assignment to work on. The news ELA assignment that we worked on was about climate change and how it affects the time. I think that this is a very interesting article because I have never really thought about how those two aspects of our days would react/work together. Due to climate change we will not have to add another gap into our timeframe for quite a good while.

 Today in class we read a short poem called the red wheelbarrow. This poem talks about how there are so many things that rely on the red wheelbarrow just as there are many things that rely on others too. I think that this poem has a great use of imagery and shows a lot about the writer.

 Today in class the teacher was absent and we had a sub. The newsela article that was assigned to us today was about climate change and how it affects the time. The article says that we are going to need a negative gap minute soon but due to climate change we might need it later than expected due to it. I do not understand too much about this topic but I think it was interesting to say the least

 Today in class we answered a worksheet about a budget with minimum wage. This worksheet helped show me the issues that minimum wage workers must go through in order to stay afloat. Many of the average essential prices in Georgia far exceeded the minimum wage coverage for a month. This makes me wonder how people actually make it with such jobs in the world.

 Today in class we watched a video financial disasters such as trying to live with minimum wage. I felt very bad for the woman in the video because she was just barely able to get all the essentials needed to live with her paycheck even with support and was living on paycheck to paycheck with no savings. I feel as if the minimum wage should be raised in order to help people out who are struggling.

Sick/absent. Today I woke up feeling horrible in the morning and decided that it would be better for me to take some medicine and sleep in. It was overall not a good day today.
