In 1931 things were much more cheaper than things are now. In this story, Timmy Oglethorpe pays for Cracker Jack with only a quarter and we would have to pay much more now since it is now 2015. The Great Depression is included in this story. Many things happened during The Great Depression. They were not good things either. A detail that I noticed was that now in baseball the players have metal bats, but in 1931 they had wooden bats.

Yesterday, my class and I played a game that had to do with taxes. We were given a cup full of pepper mints and the teacher said things like if you have glasses or should have you glasses on give me ____ amount of candy, or things like if you have laces on your shoes then give me ____ amount of candy. Also, if you are a girl and you have your hair tied up with some sort of band then give me ____ amount of candy. But, the first one that she said was if you have a pencil on your desk give me ____ amount of candy. What I learned was that people back in the days got treated VERY unfairly. That was an amazing lesson that I learned and I hope we can do it again sometime soon.

PAST
I remember at time when we were all in fourth grade, which was last year. We had a special visitor. He gave us all plenty of opportunities to press our own flower. We even got to pick out our own flower and press it on our own. After we pressed our flowers, we were all able to look at other flowers that had been pressed by other people in the past. After school I went home and gave my pressed flower to my mom as a gift. That is a time that I never will forget.

FUTURE
My step dad and I are planning on going to either a Dallas Cowboys game or, a Texas A&M game, because I realized that it would be fun if we both can go do something together. Also, because we don’t do many things together and because we both love football very much. That is what I am looking forward to do.
