 My poster is about my made-up character, Cleona Anu Walsh, and the deer represents the national animal, Ireland. The dress is 1930s dress, the armory, and then her school, she was. And then on the back, a little poem, short story, then. My name is Cleona Anu Walsh, an immigrant from Ireland where the red deer, Roman, dazed our gold. I took a journey of 14 weeks filled with sicknesses and storms. I wrapped in America to be greeted by Ellis Island. I waited days before being interviewed. Then I made my trip to Springfield, Massachusetts. It was a year before I could speak fluent English, but by then, war began, World War II. All the men left believing the women. Armory workers came around to everyone's home, asking the women to work to help with the war. Our chance had arisen, so we agreed. Work began days later. A woman came by the thousands and we worked. Coming home, we worked, coming home to our families at early dawn. It was exhausting work, but it was worth it. Gas, aluminum, rubber came into short amounts. We'd be under ration. The quality was at its finest. Everyone worked as one, all as one. Later years would prove to differ, but right now it matters. On September 2nd, 1945, happiness blurs. We won the war. Men arrived home, casting women aside. For our efforts, nothing, my life wasn't for nothing. I'm an independent woman who helped save the country. I'm an independent woman who rationed my things for our army. I am an independent woman who gave everything for this country. I am an independent woman. Whoa. I think it's for me. It's supposed to be like China. His name is Derrick. He's crying because his family left to go work. His father left for the war. His mom was sent here. His lads are current because they are all the journal entries that Derrick wrote were about how his life was so miserable without his parents. And sometimes he would talk about how his mom would come to him. I think it was in the second entry. He talked about how last night his mom came home so late at night that she looked like he didn't see his mom. To John Green, who was born on January 1st, 1888, just outside Montreal in St. Remy, Quebec, Canada, and first moved to the US at age 11. He began to work in a textile mill and was a bobbing boy at age 12. On working in the mill, he developed important skills that he ended up using for the rest of his life. At age 18, he had already made and patented two in benches, a telescopic screw jack and an automatic bobbing winding machine. It was in 1916 that Mr. Miranda shifted his life towards making the semi-automatic rifle. And then in 1932, he patented what would be named the legendary M1 semi-automatic rifle. Now, first off, the rules for the setup. So for the first, when setting up the game, you give each player one of the job cards that I have here, I have six job cards, each of them having different termally salaries. So every turn you'll get the amount of money shown on the card. The most valuable is comment down at $50 for the turn and the least valuable is secretary at 10. And that's it for job cards. And that first person will choose a person to represent their worker, which I don't, I left the stick figures at home, so I'm gonna have to use these marker caps as an example. And then we just choose play 10, 15, or 20 turns and then start the game. And your starting money is, the money you start with is the number of money shown on your job card. And then each player rolls the die and then moves that way to spaces. Like I have three, for instance, what does it start with? I have three, and then we get to the spaces. To lose spaces, you earn an extra five, 10, or 20 dollars while working. Green spaces are kind of wild, let's just say that. You either get a big bonus of 30, a big expense of 30, you get to gain an extra turn or lose your next turn. Faces are expense spaces, meaning you spend five dollars, 10 dollars or 20 dollars on food and housing and a probability for your family. And the white spaces are just normal spaces, just a normal workday and nothing else for special events. Starts ways, I think speaks for itself. Okay, so we did a project on Thomas Planchard who proposed the greatest inventions. He invented the tack machine, that was his first invention, was so good for a tax, a production. He was soon working for ASO, ASO, ASO more. A major contractor, Millbury. He also produced, he also produced black muskets, supplementing those made at the armory. He invented the Blanchard plate. As big as on homework. It was adopted in national armories with more than a dozen other other machines, Blanchard plate. Works much like a modern key cutting machine. It also slowly rotates, but when it stops, it's really, really big. It's as big as a thing. He built the first automobile. It was really cool. I know that it's small. That's what he says. His first invention was the tack machine. And his second is the Blanchard, what was? Is it still upstairs? Was. Okay. Was the Blanchard plate. It's a picture. And then, Blanchard died in 1864. He was only 86 years old. Only? So I made up this story about this kid who has to move because of the world war two stuff. First, I drew a map of, he's from Poland. And then he had to move to Italy and France. And then he moved back to Poland. He worked for the United States. He used to be Jacob, but I wrote. Yeah, okay. I put, my name is Jacob Prince, and this is my story. I am from Poland. This day started like any other. I was eating breakfast and messing around with my siblings. The alarm went off. And I assumed it was just a regular breakfast. But it wasn't, after that, I moved into Italy. It was the same thing. We went to France. It was good there. What we started to get home sick and went back home. It was fine for a while, but it happened again. My parents said we were moving to Springfield so they can work at the army. I moved out. I lived on, I am from Warsaw, Poland, 1939. When I got to America, there was a big, huge statue. My dad was a fighter in the war. I didn't know him. He had to share his shoes with his siblings. He chose them because of rubber. They only got one pair of shoes to be here. And at school, he would practice the air range, really. Every time he would eat candy, he'd put the wrapper in some jars. He had one. I'm not commonly like so many. It's a fake relative of mine. Me, Kino Bradshaw. Hello. What's your first name? He started to work in Armored in 1931. The lifestyle of Kino Bradshaw. Kino Bradley was a proud engineer. He created objects and products people wouldn't believe could be made. Later in his years, he then began to work for the Armored and started creating more and more male objects, such as guns for example. One day he created his last invention yet, the DLS, the Daylight Saver, sensor. This invention allows the lights to turn on at night and turn off during the day. He made many things to help advance the Armored until he was on a horrible accident. It got so bad that he couldn't use his hand to get it. That invention, not the invention. I like this one. He made five glasses of wood that were lying plus five points, and then you take another five points or there's, you call them six minus two points, then you get back two points. Or there's these things I call them promotion bridges because it's like Candyland where you can cross the bridge to get to the other side. And it's like you got a promotion so you're escaping this part. And then you also get more points. I said she left her job because the humming machines and how she got to wear the red thingy on her head that was the bomb to prevent her hair from leaving and how she loved actually doing her work and she loved making sense of what she felt. And so, yeah, what's her name? Adelaide. I chose to do my prod perspective of a child whose mom is working and still being a mom and who's read my poem and then I'll describe my poster. It says, where are you? I don't see you as much anymore. Daddy and Billy and Uncle Jimmy are gone. You say they are a war but what is war? When you are away, where are you? You used to be home to make me close. Now I wear Noah's oak clothes and shoes but they are torn and worn and falling off. Norma and I do what we can but it is nothing like what you and Daddy and Billy do. A village no raises me while you are away. You used to cook nice family dinners when Daddy and Billy were here but now it's yucky and small. I don't like everyone else watching me. I'd rather have my mommy. The card games in school are boring but I can spot the bad things. I tell the teacher when I see them and we run it high. I still don't know why. When do Daddy and Billy and Uncle Jimmy come home? Mommy, where are you? So, here's my really bad drawing at the house. That's good. Thank you. Is that it and mine? That's good. Thanks guys. So we have another brother named Jack and we have Jack and Noah. So Jack is saying, where's mommy Noah? When are Daddy and Billy and Uncle Jimmy coming home? And Noah says to his brother, I don't know. And to tie in the village raising everybody, I have some random lady walking down the street saying hi, Jack and Noah, do you need anything? And they're looking out the window and they're looking for mommy and daddy Billy. Yeah, mommy, daddy Billy and Uncle Jimmy.
