Contributions Challenge 1: Our class is working very hard to complete challenge 1. We have divided into 2 groups and each is working on 2 personal stories. We will be presenting those in variety of ways and hopefully we all will learn about the RIGHTS OF A CHILD. Ms. Bhatnagar, our teacher has taken us through the reflection questions based on article 22,24 and 27. This has encouraged us to think about our own lives and how different it is from the lives of other unfortunate children.Now you will see our videos that we made for the harsh life of child labour.
We want to grow up and work very hard to bring about a change in our society and look forward to our postings. Challenge 1 - The Rights of a child to a Safe Home
So far we have 2 different groups that each have an orginal refugee story. We collected the information on these stories through interviews with the survivors. They originated in Somalia and Vietnam. They are true stories but the names have been withheld. We will present these in the form of poems, a rap and a poster.
We are having a Skype meeting with .............. group: on .............. date
at .............. pm/am

About Introduction: By Azile, Progress, Xhanti
The way in which you chose to introduce yourselves was very original, the second picture is really creative and shows diversity, it is the coolest. Your use of pictures gives us as much information as words would have.We think that not only introducing yourselves but your country as well was a great idea as it tells us about the environment in which you live.WOW!, we didn't know about insulin treatment inventions.
Feedback from: Liemers College Netherlands
We like your introduction, especially the poster you made with all of your hobby's on it. We also like the tree you made about your opinions about childrens rights. They both are very creative! Keep up the good job.
We liked the rap, but we have a tip about the performance. Maybe you could stand in front of a white wall, so the focus is on you and not on the stuff behind you.
Feedback from: Agrani School and College, Bangladesh
