4.30.19

This week we are discussing goods and services and the difference between them. We've had speakers come in to talk about their jobs and we've discussed if their job is selling goods or providing a service. 

Mrs. Ortega's mom came in and talked to our classes about being a flight attendant.




We got to practice being a flight attendant and show the class the seatbelts, oxygen mask, life preservers and got to deliver drinks! 




The firemen also came and talked to us about their jobs.




We talked about how scarcity looks around the world. We did a lesson to talk about how 1 in 6 kids don't have food and clean water.

We were put in small groups and everyone got to draw whatever they wanted to eat on their plate except for 1 of us. And the others were not allowed to share their crayon with the person that didn't have a crayon. 




The conversations were great after.
"This isn't fair!"
"Everyone should get food!"

We talked about how some of us didn't even notice that 1 person wasn't getting to draw. We also talked about how there IS plenty of food in the world but it's scarce in some areas. We are also very thankful that there are programs around the world that try and help this problem. Rice Bowls is one of them.



Each learner was given a rice bowl to collect change in and these will be due in a couple of weeks.
