I was surprised that you can live in poverty by living in a good home with access to clean water and not have enough money for food of to pay taxes.

I was surprised when I heard that some kids had to sleep in ditches, and when it rained, the ditches would fill up with water, and some kids got washed away, and drowned.

I agree with Xee Dawg about something that really surprised me. Something that also surprised me, was when the boy in the video said that some kids got nemonia (I'm not sure if I spelled it right) from the cold, in the ditch. I feel really bad for these poor children, and couldn't even imagine my life being that terrible.

this clip was probably my favourite clip out of all the clips u showed us and what really gave me the feels was when the child was talking about how they slept in ditches and that on rainy days they would be carried away from the rain and drowned

I think the video was sad because just seeing how many of those children live in poverty, makes me think how fortunate we are, and how they have to live everyday. I was surprised that in the book it says that most people living in poverty are women and children. Hopefully throughout this unit, we can learn more ways to reduce poverty around the world.

I'm surprised because good thing we have a home to live in and have food to eat we don't know how lucky we are if we didn't have a school we wouldn't learn. and some of them have to live on the street in ditches it must be so dirty in there and very cold and the rain comes you will get very very wet.

I was surprised that they sleeped in ditches and if it got wet it was cold for them because some of them must of wore half sleeves and I read in the Magzine that people who don't go to school or they don't know how to read that's what make's them poverty.

What surprised me from the clip was that the boy showed an act of kindness and helped his friends and it shocks me that he is already really good in school because in the clip it said that he is doing well in class.

I was surprised that the kids had to sleep in ditches and that everywhere there is some sort of poverty even where we live. We are so lucky that were not living on the streets.
