Trying to be a leader

                                                                   
Today in computer class we watched a video about a show called Kid nation about kids trying to run a town with other children but unfortunately there's a lot of chaos. Many of the children are taking to much food and not sharing with the others which is causing conflict. The children have a meeting and only one boy, Michael, was able to organize the meeting and get everyone to work together and work past the dysfunction.(this vocab word fits into the show because all the children were freaking out and arguing).

Later they found a book that told them how to organize the town into four different sections of green, blue, yellow and red. Later a day or 2 later graffiti was found and the older boys were the suspects but before they can investigate a meeting is called and the children are given new businesses to work at and are sorted into upper classes who own the business and then the other children would be sorted into a more lower class position so they will be the workers.I see this as Capitalism one of our vocab words because the upper class run things and are in charge of their independent businesses.

To sort the kids into classes all the colors are sorted into teams and play a game to collect the most water although the water they collect must be there color. In the end red won upper class, blue won merchants, yellow won cooks and green won laborers or the proletarians who work for the upper class as laborers (this is one of our vocab words) . In the end the council(who have all the power) had to choose the prizes of either an out house or a television and chose outhouses for every 5 children. The cooks made breakfast and it was actually enjoyed by the children unfortunately though the yellows refused to clean or do dishes causing more conflict. After this all the children enjoyed the out houses and had fun at the soda saloon then many went and bought candy at the candy store. Another meeting started and the only complaint was about the yellows not cleaning. after this the kids were asked if any of them wanted to leave and only one, an 8 year old named Jimmy decided  to go. After this Sofia, the girl who complained about the yellows was given the golden star which is worth $20,000.
