Writing: Band people - edited draft for tomorrow Goals: your plan should be completed for tomorrow. (Your goal starts tomorrow and ends April 27th) Bring PE strip for our gym days - Monday and Wed. Reading: Response #3 Math: Grade 7s-p204-205 #4-8 due tomorrow Grade 6 - Last week you measured objects in class. These were the directions below! Very few of you followed these directions so you need to redo your notebook work for tomorrow. HW: Complete 2 perimeter worksheets (Here are last Thursday's directions): (Draw and label your objects and shapes onto your grid sheet. Do not worry about exact number of squares when you sketch your shape but be sure to label the side measurements and unit on the grid. In your notebook, list the name of the objects, length of sides, show an addition statement and determine the perimeter for each. Be sure to include the unit measure e.g. cm, mm, m. eg. in my notebook: irregular - 4 sided student desk: 38 + 22 + 38 + 22 = 120 perimeter = 120 cm) Socials: HW: Find 10 organizations (local or global) that are helping to reduce poverty. So now that we have an idea of what causes poverty, who is affected, what poverty looks like and what are some of the ways people are dealing with poverty; the big question is how can we take action! What can we do to make a difference? Or as our novel 'Drums' quoted; “Instead of agonizing about the things you can't change, why don't you try working on the things you can change”... what can we change? POST your ideas on how you believe you can help. Here is the video we watched today.

well first of all if we were to send the kids a dodge ball then we should send clothes and money to them so the kids can have fun and the people can use the money to build structures and buy food.

Who are you talking about? Do you mean the village I was telling you about? So how much money do you think they would need to build structures and buy food. What kind of structures do you mean? Where would they get their food?What kind of clothes would you send them?

I think that it is number 1 because if the world keeps spending money on guns and weapons then so many people in extreme poverty could maybe live on top of the living wage. But yet still so many people still buy weapons and other dangerous things but that money could goo towards the poor and making them live happy and peacefully.

Again - how exactly would you like to help? Who are you referring to? The 'poor' is a huge category.

I think that we can help by having charities and fundraisers. We can also donate some of the items by ourselves, such as food, clothes, medicine, blankets, etc.

I agree with justice, I think we can donate money & items we don't use anymore, I would donate money to Rwanda because I feel like most people would do local places

I think that I can help by educating my parents and other guardians on poverty. This would help because I don't have any money to donate but my parents do. I think that a lot of parents weren't taught this when they were in school. So if they knew how bad it is they would do something about it.

We can change Change poverty by fundraising/donating, buying them food, helping them out,joining organizations. We can do SO MANY things to help people in poverty, we may even give them some education so they can learn. It would be awesome to see no more poverty because it just sucks you know?

What I can do to help prevent poverty from existing is I can make money in different ways and then donate the earnings to a charity for example (red), Breakfast club of Canada,grandmothers to grandmothers campaign

A way I can help the people in poverty in Canada is: (I would probably do this when I am older though) To join an organization, like The Breakfast Club, and give at-risk kids healthy breakfasts/meals, or kids that don't have breakfast in the morning. (We could even give healthy breakfasts to adults)

In the video we watched today it said "if we spend less than 1% on weapons a lot of poverty problems would be solved" So thats a way we can help
