Bell Activity  Your words are “bankrupt” & “depression” (economic term, not the mental illness)  Find the word on your yellow study guide and complete the following information for the word.  The music today is from the Great Depression. The Depression lasted from 1929 to 1939 and was a very difficult time for most people. Some songs from this time express this, but most are upbeat.

Today we will learn…  History Objective – We will examine how the Great Depression affected life in Utah and the rest of the United States.  Behavior Objective – Collaboration: Take turns reading with your table partners and helping them figure out the answers to questions.  Language Objective – We will read for information to answer questions about the Great Depression and how it affected Utah.

End of the Roaring ‘20s  Read pages with your table partners.  Answer question 20 in your study guide with specific lifestyle changes that occurred in the 1920s.  Then answer questions on your orange paper from yesterday.  If you have time, you can collaborate with your table partners for any missing answers from your Roaring Twenties or WWI video guides after finishing the other questions.

The Great Depression  In many ways, the Great Depression was the opposite of the Roaring Twenties. People lost their jobs, their homes and, sometimes, their families.  Utah was especially hit hard by the bad economy. Utah’s main businesses were farming (agriculture) and mining, both of which lost almost all value in the Depression.  Some Utah counties experienced more than 70% unemployment rates.

Children in the Depression  What was it like growing up during the Great Depression? For many people, life was a daily struggle. At the peak of the Depression, 25% of the nation's workers -- one out of four -- were unemployed. No job meant no money to pay the mortgage or buy food and clothes for the family.  Times were hard whether you lived in a city or on a farm, whether you were an adult or a child.

Children in the Depression  Families unable to pay the mortgage lost their homes and farms.  As a result, about 250,000 young people were homeless in the early years of the Depression. Many became nomads, traveling the highways and railways.  20% of America's children were hungry and without proper clothing.  In some coal mining regions, the percentage of malnourished children reached as high as 90%.

Children in the Depression  Children went without shoes and warm clothes for the winter.  Thousands of schools had to close down because they lacked the money to stay open.  About 3 million children between 7 and 17 had to leave school. 40% of young people from age 16 to 24 were neither in school nor working.  Read pages about the Great Depression in Utah.  Answer questions in your study guide.

Bell Activity  Your words are “watershed” and “reclamation”.  Work on questions or any incomplete parts of your study guide when you are done with the word. Remember, the test is Tuesday!  The music today is from the Great Depression. Although most of the music from this era is happy, there are other songs that express Americans’ frustrations and sadness with the situation and how hopeless they were at times. Listen for those themes.  Where should your backpack be? Check under your desk for gum. If you find any, remove it!

Bell Activity  Get your response paper and write your reaction to this situation.  Imagine your parents lost their jobs due to the recession. What would your family do to get by until they could find a new job? What if it were several years before they could find a job? How might this change your life?  Where should your backpack be?
