Wow! This is a really interesting website in my opinion. I have learned a lot of things. One of the interesting pages is the page called, "Right Of The Child." It teaches you a lot of information by different things such as:
-a postcard
-a pamphlet
-and an Easy To Read
From Farheen Khan
i think this web is cool because it reminds me of poverty and it talk about rights
i think that this website is full of information and once you start nreading it,you get loads of information.it was interesting to me because it talked all about the needy children around the world and how they needed help.I also have a question that in the introduction, it said that"The United Nations Convention of the Rights of the Child protects the rights of children. Almost every country in the world, including Canada, has signed the convention, yet children continue to suffer."why are kids still suffering if almost all the countries signed that they will protect the rights of children?
From this website I have learned a lot of things and for me the most important things that I found interesting was is: treat people the way you want to be treated and respect other peoples rights and always respect the law.
I think this web is every intresting!It teaches you how to make the world a better place.
i feel sorry when i go on www.freethechildren.com/blahblah it is in information sources.i know we all can help only if we try.
I think this website is a really good one beacause you can learn lots of stuff like poverty and rights.
i think be the change program is a great idea because this will help people change the world.COMMON HELP CHANGE THE WORLD!
i like this website because i think it can help people relise how lucky the are
I am in Me 2 We. It is a great club. We made 571.13 to make a school for Srilanka. Are goal is to make 900.00
The main idea is "to make a diffenece".Be The Change Program is a gerat program.
I am also in Me 2 We. This was a great website where I found some GREAT fundraising ideas for the club to plan and for our school to have! Hopefully, the ideas are fun enough for everyone! I like this website. It is similar to the Me 2 We and the Free The Children Website but provides more information.
From Farheen
We can change by being kind to people and respect other people and sharing things with people that are new.
This Web can help us for growing our community. We can help that by giving charity and clothes to the poor. We can help them by giving money to build school at some poor contries. (eg.Bangladesh, Sri-lanka)
my word for this week is: "We can Help."
In this website i can see how they raise money and one of the thing is to make a candy gram. I have a connection, i am in me to we and we are making a cany gram to help build a school in sri lanka. Also i was thinking of what Mahatma Gandhi says:“You must be the change you want to see in the world.”I think he really mean that if you want the world to change,then you have to start it.
This website is a great website because it's helping people like child lauor and,poverty.
