"Food Inc."

David Jackson

Today in family literacy we watched this movie “Food Inc.”. This movie was telling us about how our food such as beef, chicken and pork is being harvested or reproduced. Watching how the chickens are raised was kind of gross. How they mass produce them in big buildings all together and some die due to how fast the farmers make them grow. Other then how they mass produce our meat will want to make you think twice or three times on where or how you get your meat.

AIDS memorial quilt

Last Thursday I went on a field trip to the AIDS quilt show. There were so eight different designs on just one quilt. It made me wonder about friends and family that may have AIDS. I saw this picture of the all the quilts that people that had died from AIDS that were placed at the mall in Washington DC. It was pretty amazing to see that. http://www.aidsquilt.org/

Family Literacy at the 'AIDS Memorial Quilt Show'

Last week on the 4th for Family Literacy we met Sue at the Forks Coffee Shop to have breakfast after we ate we went to the AIDS Memorial Quilt Show where we got to look at some quilts in memorial of people that has passed away form AIDS. We also had the chance to listen to a guest speaker talk about being 27 years identified with HIV and how he is managing it by taking several different medications along with three different protien powders.
