As you can see the people looked really skinny during the Japanese Occupation due to the lack of food. And also, these people are actually slaves. They work really hard and they do chores that are really tough. But they get very little food. And all they can do is to continue what they are told to do without bargaining.

I can infer that u have to be English educated to get a good job and that during that time students could not study in peace due to the release of national service(NS).

This can be seen from the little comic from the textbook pg 79. Where they state that the British  colonial government introduced NS and people of the age of 18-20years of age must register for NS. Many of the Chinese middle school  students where affected as they were in the appropriate age range to join NS.This disrupted their studies and created a misunderstanding among some students where they thought they will be sent to fight in the emergency.

The Chinese middle school students also felt that they were treated unfairly by the British.they questioned the British about the willingness of the British to look after their interests.

I can conclude that the British registration for NS changed students views on the British that they were not interrested in their interests and studies.in the end they demonstrated strikes which was chaotic ]]> 2018-06-26 09:00:13 UTC https://padlet.com/ewen_a_1403/wbfn4p5tavnp/wish/268575261 g4491887 https://padlet.com/ewen_a_1403/wbfn4p5tavnp/wish/268589161 These sources show a change when comparing the currency used before and during the Japanese Occupation.

This changed when the Japanese started taking over Singapore and changed the currency used to banana money. Banana money was issued by the Japanese to replace the Straits dollar.There was a big change in terms of the quality of the housing. Before the Japanese Occupation which involved bombings for example, the housings were steady and they looked comfortable. During the Japanese Occupation, the Japanese then ruined the housing by the bombs. The bombs caused the walls of the housings to crack. The lives of the people have also gotten tougher as they have to repair their own housing.There was no change as the jobs the people in Singapore had before and during the Japanese Occupation were still tough. The job as a fishermen is tough as it is very tiring and also they do not earn a lot, they might also have difficulties providing for their families. ]]> 2018-06-26 11:19:00 UTC https://padlet.com/ewen_a_1403/wbfn4p5tavnp/wish/268589244 g4491887 https://padlet.com/ewen_a_1403/wbfn4p5tavnp/wish/268589585 The changes in people's lives before and during the Japanese Occupation was extensive. The education was largely changed as different races used to study in their own mother tongues, and during the Japanese Occupation, they studied in Japanese, which gives them no freedom of language. The currency used was also changed from the Straits Settlements' notes to the banana notes by the Japanese. Housing too became worn out because of the Japanese's bombings. However, in the perspective of jobs, they did not change much as they continued working as fishermen and so on.]]> 2018-06-26 11:22:59 UTC https://padlet.com/ewen_a_1403/wbfn4p5tavnp/wish/268589585 garrenpoh https://padlet.com/ewen_a_1403/wbfn4p5tavnp/wish/268605004 source 33

i can infer that the food back then was running low and there wasnt enough food for everyone to eat  but could still survive on things that they can lay their hands on

This can be seen from page 38 source 30 where people are collecting rice to eat.The price of the rice is very expensive to buy and get.
 i can conclude that even though food was hard to get and rice was expensive to buy, they try to make use of every part of the fruit you ate.For instance,even the skin from a cempedak can be eaten. The seed,which is hard, can be boiled until it becomes soft and edible. You can even eat the shells of groundnuts.

P:I can infer that during the Japanese Occupation,leisure and entertainment was very restricted.

I can infer that during the Japanese occupation the Japanese wanted everbody to learn Japanese and they also changed the national anthem to Japanes

P:The Japanese changed the way the people lived as there was not enough food .

Ev:"Sometimes I catch the rice floating in the drain because when the Japanese soldiers finished eating , their plates will be washed , so drain water will wash down the little left over food , then we bring home and boil the same rice and eat."

E:Therefore this means that before the Japanese Occupation people had enough food but during the Japanese Occupation the life of young indian men there was a lack in food hence this changed their lifestyle.

Source 1: Before the Japanese Occupation, life in Singapore was very tough due to limited supply of resources and manpower. During the Japanese Occupation, Singapore was in a mess and it was even tougher to survive due to the presence of the Japanese. The people had to get water through taps, which was a troublesome process. From this, I can infer that the teenagers in Singapore were getting insufficient food and water.

E: "Everyone was also entitled to 2 katis of noodles and two loaves of bread a week. The noodles, made from tapioca flour and palm oil", said Madam Wong, were the worst things she had ever eaten.

E: From this ican infer that the teenagers during that time had limited food and had to survive on only bread and noodles made from tapioca flour which tasted really bad.

L: In conclusion, the food teenagers had were affected greatly by the Japanese Occupation as they only had to depend on noodles made from tapioca, bread and sweet potatoes to survive.   ]]> 2018-06-28 03:44:36 UTC https://padlet.com/ewen_a_1403/wbfn4p5tavnp/wish/268814766 ewen_a_1403 https://padlet.com/ewen_a_1403/wbfn4p5tavnp/wish/268814983 Japanese Teachers are teaching the students Japanese.they were not allowed to learn English and wanted everybody to recite the Japanese national anthem.life changed during the occupation as everybody was forced to learn Japanese.education was disrupted as some students decided not to go school until the British was in rule again.
 There were also Japanese textbooks introduced during that time it affected the students learning . 
I. Can conclude that the Japanese mpacted the lives of people in Singapore during that time making everybody learn the Japanese anthem and not allowing them to study their sunpbject interests.]]> 2018-06-28 03:48:10 UTC https://padlet.com/ewen_a_1403/wbfn4p5tavnp/wish/268814983 ninjaofsouls12 https://padlet.com/ewen_a_1403/wbfn4p5tavnp/wish/268815655 SEND HELP
E:This can be seen on Paragraph 2 and 3 ," Before the Japanese invaded, we could play lots of activities. " and " But after the Japanese came, the activities we could do was restricted"
E:I can support it with examples from paragraph 2 and 3 . "We played with spiders, marbles and cards. Sometimes, we will go to the nearby cinema to watch videos that is being screened." and after the Japanese Occupation ,"We started to climb trees, and played with rubber bands, or we would go the nearby story-telling place to listen to stories. "

Therefore i can conclude that before the japanese occupations people had many activities to do ,but during the Japanese Occupation the activities were fewer and some were restricted.]]> 2018-06-28 03:57:01 UTC https://padlet.com/ewen_a_1403/wbfn4p5tavnp/wish/268815655 ewen_a_1403 https://padlet.com/ewen_a_1403/wbfn4p5tavnp/wish/268816116
