    I think it’s terrible for these students. To be like the exact oppisite to us in how we eat and do. Because they sit on the hard solid cold concrete while we sit around having a laugh and now I start to think how would it feel to be a poor child left on the street? But from what I’ve been seeing on things like the blog or the news life for me would be extremely hard.
    What I think is devastating is that the fact of how many kids In Eastern India are poor and probably homeless. Because you look down the whole room and you see 18000 children and yet really no one could help them, and what if there were more it would be horrible to know that. My thought is that all these kids could of been saved but yet only a few helped these kids to survive in the outside world.
    1) I wonder how the children feel about living their lives but without family?
    I think it would have to be hard for them but they had to get over for life to try and take care of theselves.
    2) How did these kids get homeless and poor when they’re kids and who did it?
    Well I think it was iether the government or the parents and I think this because of money and if the parents did it they would of been terrible to let them go. But if the government did it then I think it’s like selling a child to go and live their life.

    This is so sad because they have to sit on that hard rocky floor while eating there lunch. They must be large school because there is so many people and they don’t have school uniform. So they mustn’t have much money in there school.
    I think this because in most schools they have tables and chairs and school uniform we need to do something to help them get some resources so they can be happy at school and enjoy school.
    Why hasn’t anyone done anything to help these poor kids school because they need some things to help them be better learners in life? Why don’t they have school uniform? I think they don’t have any much money or something.

    I think I would rather have the life I already am in because I should be greatful for the life I have. Do they sleep at school? What do they learn? I feel bad for them because I bet their lives are hard to live with also because they are lonely Because there not with their family .I am glad they have this opportunity to transform their life to something better then what they have. I think their life will transform to a great life. Wow I could say that is a lot of Indian kids just in one school.

    We don’t do that at liddiard road primary school. They are sitting on the floor and not on the table and they might not have food at home so they get to eat at school.I think they are eating because it might be snack or lunch time because they are putting food in there mouth
    They might have to sleep at school and they might not have anything to do at school and nothing to do at home. I think it is good because they can learn and get a job.I think the adults are walking around to check the children to see if they are eating their food.

    1. Make a claim/thoughts about the topic
    It’s about children who are poor and they get to come here to get food so they can get food to be able to live. And people are nice and help the needy out, with there suffer. It is transforming there life because they get to see tomorrow by the help of giving food to them to fill there bellies and there emptiness. I think that it’s nice of this school to provide there needs for them because they wouldn’t be able to get it any other way, because they are poor and they can’t help it. But others can. They might not enjoy there meals here because they look like slop. I think it’s about lunch and they get all there meals from there and sleep there too. This could be there eating area for this place. I think that they don’t have a home or parents, or they don’t live with them for reasons only some know. They could feel lonley and sad or just empty inside.

    2. Identify support for your claim/thoughts
    I think that this is the placed that they eat and it’s lunch time, because it looks light outside the windows and there meals don’t look like a breakfast. This could be the eating area because it is a big floor area for them all to fit. I think that there meals aren’t very good looking, because it looks like slop, but again it’s all they got. I don’t know if they have parents or not because there’s not much evidence to say and I think that most of them don’t, because they are there and not at there home with there parents. I think that they have all the meals there and live and sleep at this place with all the people caring for them, because they have no where to go

    I feel devastated because we have tables and they don’t. I feel sad because they have to eat on the floor and we get to eat on a table and you don’t know what could be on the floor. I think they are eating because they are eating food. I wonder if they have class rooms. I wonder if they have to travel a long distance to school.
