At the beginning of class, we were put into groups depending on what paper we were given for homework. The purpose of these groups was to read about a problem that corresponds to the Articles of Confederation. The problem my group was given was that Congress couldn't get enough votes for new articles they wanted to be added. After reading through the articles a couple times, our group discovered that Articles 14 and 16 were the reason that the new articles could not get enough votes. Articles 14 and 16 stated that congress would have absolute power over many things, making them unable to get votes.
I dropped english class today.
What we did in class today reminded me of a scene in the book A Seperate Peace. In this scene, a group of boys gather in a room at their school because one of the boys pushed another off of a tree and they are trying to get to the bottom of this incident. Our class connected to this today because we were given a problem that we had to investigate and figure out why it occured. In the book, they question the boy on if and why he would push the other boy off of the limb and investigate the problem.
