Journal Entries


Imagine you are living through the Great Depression. 
Write a 2 page Journal Entry on your current living situation.

Questions to think about…
-       What are your struggles?
-       How is everyone around you coping with loss?
-       What are you going to do to earn money?
-       What are your dreams and goals?
-       How are you going to stay positive?

What did The Great Depression mean for everyday people?
       No welfare.
       No social security.
       Hardly any help from the state.
       Families did not have enough food.
       People were made homeless.
       Banks foreclosed on loans.
