The American History Museum By Tarrin Weston

My history class and I went to the American History Museum. We went there to learn about Rosie the Riveter which is our class name. I have already been there before and I never knew that that was what they were talking about. So she the lady who guided us around told us about what the exhibit was about.
It was about how Rosies were women workers during World War 2. As the men went to war women worked as the men were fighting. We also learned the consequence with this change and to me I think the women didn't care. It looked like they did a lot of work which was a big effect on the war which I can believe.
After the field trip, I have a more understanding of the Rosies and now I see their impact.

Whatt Aree Youu Doingg!!! By Tarrin Weston

How are you suppose to act in public? Well to me it's a natural thing. Do you go out in public and embarrassing yourself. Well to me it's not funny.
To me safety is a huge thing that people do not realize for example in the metro. You are suppose to act in a good manner when in a crowded situation and now people yell and scream. What's up with that!?! People also stand so close to the end, not knowing what the what ifs and so they can get injured. If people learn how to work together and learn respect our society would not be as bad as it  is now.

Are we in public?! By; Jennella Arter

Last time I checked, we were on the subway. The way to act on the subway, and public as well, is to stick with your adult. You want to be aware of your surroundings at all times. There is no reason to yell or talk loudly. We embarrassed Roise and our school, by the way we acted. I wish we could take it back and get another chance. We were foolish and we are truly sorry for our actions.

Trip BACK IN TIME! By; Jennella Arter

At the museum we learned alot about our class name. Rosie the Riveter was made up of several women and of all ages. The women worked in factories and had to dress like the men. It took two people to rivet. A bucking bar was used to help rivet on the inside of airplanes. There was a game at the museum to see how well we could rivet, or what it was like. So it " Looks like I'm back to pushing a broom!" Even though I'm no Rosie, I am sure glad that our class is honored to wear the name! YAY ROSIE'S!

Didn't your mother teach you how to act? By Toree Weaver

        When you are out in public anything can happen, so you need to act accordingly and be aware of your surrounding. You also need to be respectful of other people's space. Yelling, screaming and not sharing the sidewalk is not the way you should carry yourself. You should always be remindful that the way you act reflects your family, friends, your school and even your neighborhood. Just because you see someone else do something inappropriate doesn't meen you have to do it. You should always live above the influence.
                                                        

Our Rosie Experience by Toree Weaver

         On our field trip to the Smithsonian we learned a lot about our class name “Rosie the Riveter”. One of the many things that we learned was that when women first started working in a mans place they were not welcome by the other men who did not go to war. We also learned that the women had to tie their hair up or cut it because it might have gotten caught in the machinery. Another interesting fact that we learned was that the main thing that women did was riveting different parts of an airplane. This is how the got the name “ Rosie the Riveter”. The women would practice riveting on a plane piece of metal because if they messed up on a major airplane piece the whole production would be backed up. It took two women to rivet bolts on an airplane (one on the inside and one on the outside). Although a lot of women supported the war by taking the men’s job, a lot of everyday people supported the war as well. Some people grew their own food to give to the troops. Also women stopped putting cuffs on their pants so that they can save silk for parachutes. Also people stopped driving alone and saved gas. After the war was over and the United States was victorious everything went back to normal. Women started to put cuffs in their pants and people started driving alone, but people now had a new outlook on women.

Alexandria Diggs

The pueblo tribe was a very differnet type of tribe. they would literally name their tribes after different types of foods, clothes and colors, this helped them determine where everybody belonged. They would give daily prayers so that they could get rain and other gifts from God. The pueblo people were very loving people and they had to work very well together, they had to love each other.

Alexandria the Great

Hello my name is Alexandria Nichole Diggs and i am 13 years old. Something I would want people to know about me is that I can be a very sweat person, just dont get on my nerves. My rolemodel would have to be my mother. it would be my mother because she teaches me how to love people inspight of what they might do to you. She also teaches me how to grow up and become a mature young lady. The highlights of my life would have to be spending time with my family and running track. Those are my 2 highlights because these are the things that make me happy. The thing i see in my future is me owning my 7 resturaunts all named muffy's after my grandmother. i can also see myself finishing college so these things can happen and to have children and be happily married.

Geography has effected the navajo tribe because it was very hot and dry, so they only had access to small animals and limited water sources.
