Today was a very exciting day for the School of the future. Why because we actually had people. From different countries visit our school for the first time. I myself was alittle nevus because I wasn't sure. About what to say and what not to say. As i got to kno them alittle better then i became comfortable. These mutilingual educators expressed things about their countries in a well thought out way. If i could visit their country for about a week. That would be very interesting just to be in a total different envoirnment sounds like fun.

Today in class i read a piece. I read a article on youth rights. It was saying that youth need to get known more and adults need to pay more attetion to their youth. For example they said that children need more rec centers and organizations like that. There was a couple of things that i didnt under stand one thing was that it was talking about migration and youth and didnt under stand it. Also I didnt understand that the age part of the article.

Basically the article is telling me about the difference between men and women to be migrants but focuses on the women. It is also describing how hard it is for the migrant women to find good jobs to take care of their families on the income they receive. Next the article goes into the help that the women overseas get from our government it’s not much but it keeps the children clothed and educated. Also it explains the difference from the 1990’s and now. Basically now our government helps migrants here in the U.S.

The article I read was about children be sold by their own parents into slavery for little as $180. The reason they do this is because of proverty. They are so poor (they live in ghana) that they sale their own children. This needs to be put to a stop.Many people are against it and I am to. Why does the government allow this happen? Most of the children being sold are btween the ages of 3-14 and they are mostly boys. I think this is ridiculous, but how can we change this?

The summary i read was about migration. It was about how immigrants went to different countries to find work, food, etc. The money the immmigrants earned went to fill hungry bellies, clothe poor children and educate the uneducated.As work, migrant women, they toiled the households of more wealthy fa milies, they soothed the sick and also helped the elderly. They also contributed their technical,professional expertise pay takes and try to make those important whose live s has been taken for granted.

As i read thi article I wondered:

1. How come some countries had money and the others didnt?

2. How come some parts of the migrated countries have money and the othewrs dont?

3. Why didn't the people inwhich the immigrants cleaned their homes, why didn't they pay the immigrants a little extra?

In the essay that I read. They were talking about ecconomics and brain drain. There was a oranization created. Called United Nation Developing Programme. They raised money for the people would had the disability of brain grain.The disease cause the people to be on life support. When India donated mony to the organization India lost over two billion dallors. How was the brain drain disease discovered. Is it possible to survive a brain drain. If some one does surve a brain drain, how long does that person live.

Immagration is important to me because some of my family are immagrents and it would affect me if they had to leave out of the country. It would make me highly upset if i had to leave relatives. They are immagrants from Mexico, Africa and somewhere elese. They are not close relatives but family is family.

If immigration effect you?
I think immigration does effect you I believe it effect everybody. You don't have to move to a different country you could just move into a different area of your city. So, yes i do believe migration do effect me and everyone else and it is very important.

well i woudent care like that cause i am not one of them

Immigration doesn' really effect me because from what I know all of my family members that I know personally are all usa citizens. Immigration does effect my ancestors though cause they were brought over from africa into the usa. But im not even sure because I dont really know my history and where I really come from.

Stop the violence and racisim
I don't understand why people refer to African-Americans as Blacks. I also don't understand why people only think that African-Americans are the main problem. I would like some answers and soon. But another concern is the the increasing violence. I think that the citizens should have more marches against violence and I also think that there should be more gun laws and I honestly think that a weapon and ammunition should cost more so people will stop buying them.

hey everybody my name is Krystyna I go to School of the Future. Halloween is comming up I want to say to the people is to be carefull outside

I think the stop the violence march is positive and helpful, we should do things like this more often in Philadelphia. I am pleased with how many marches Philadelphia's radio stations have been doing this year. It is a good thing that our school is getting involved in this event. People need to hear our voices about the violence and just put it to an end. There should be more enforced laws about violence. Our city is to small for all of this violence.

All of the issues we talked about today were about violence. There were many violent issues we talked about like when kids have bad additudes and they shot up innocent people. We seen many parents of victims who died in the Colimbine High School Shooting. People also say that music, video games, and tv make peole so violent. Well, the director of the movie was trying to figure out why peolple say that when the president help make some violence in the area when they throw bombs in iraq and kill innocent people.

I don't understand why people refer to African-Americans as Blacks. I also don't understand why people only think that African-Americans are the main problem. I would like some answers and soon. But another concern is the the increasing violence. I think that the citizens should have more marches against violence and I also think that there should be more gun laws and I honestly think that a weapon and ammunition should cost more so people will stop buying them.
