Our Social Studies Project

Today, in Social Studies we did a really interesting project where we got a bunch of cards saying lots of different things that happened in the history of the world and then we were asked to put all of the cards in chronological order starting from the start of time. When my group started placing our cards, we had a little bit of confusion about what came first: When the moon hit earth, or the cambrian explosion. We decided to put when the moon hit earth first because when the moon hit earth, the earth was full of lava.. When me and my group were putting these events in chronological order, the whole history of the world really came together. Before, I thought a bunch of things happened and did not really understand why, or the transition into something big that happened. Arguing with my group about what came next actually helped me learn more about the history of the world.

My name is Margaret and I'm part of the refugee social justice group. Only 1% of refugees are resettled, and the rest of them must either stay in danger or leave illegally. Even those who are resettled face homelessness, poverty, and many other issues a lot of us are lucky to not have to face. Our government has lowered the amount of refugees we let in by 50%, and until we make our voices heard.
