SLJ Week 3 day 1 Activity 1 - Meat and three Veg

It was common for women in the 1950s to stay home with their children and raise their family. They were called ‘housewives.’ Many housewives followed a simple rule when they prepared the evening meal: the ‘meat and three veg’ rule. This meant that they prepared dinners that included three different vegetables and a type of meat (eg. beef, lamb, or chicken).

I think that the Meat and three veg is a bad rule because this is very boring if eat the same everyday . I don't like this rule as these days different variety of food available and I also would not enjoy eating much vegetables.

SLJ Week 2 day 5 - Making a Statment

In late 1940s people were wearing very formal clothes whereas today in 2018 I wear casual clothes like shorts and a T-shirt or jeans and a jacket which are quite different from that time. Some people still wear formal clothes but I would prefer to ware casual clothes because I would not feel comfortable in wearing a formal clothes. 65 years from now I think that people would be wearing more fashionable clothes.

SLJ Week 2 day 2 - The Roarings 20s

I think the movie Gold rush is about Charlie Chaplin and a man called the Adventurer go up to a mountain and find gold. The movie is funny and adventures but I don't enjoy these kind of movies because it is silent and also I don't like movies in black and white. Back in the days this movie was popular and funny but in the modern time it is not that funny and exciting.
