Sobia’s Challenge 5- World Hunger

Challenge 5 (World Hunger)

I believe that one main issue about human rights is world hunger. I think that it is an issue because a lot of people are starving and are in fact dying from starvation. There are a lot of organizations for world hunger, although some people forget about these organizations, and then certain people don’t get the food they need and starve. Not everyone pays attention to this, which is why I chose this topic to write about.

A lot of organizations are usually for children but not so much for adults. I think that this is because if we feed children now then later they will be the adults and they will hopefully be well enough and can provide for their children. Essentially the economy grows and does better things and is just better. One organization is called UNICEF and this organization is for children in need. Another organization is called Stop Hunger Now and this organization is sort of different because it provides for orphanages and schools but not necessarily all children because some children don’t go to school whereas other children do have at least enough money to go to school.

In America (which is where I live) there aren’t a lot of people who are starving but around the world like in places like Syria people don’t have food because they either can’t afford it, or their town doesn’t have a lot of food because they have nowhere to get the food from. I think that if people started paying more attention to world hunger then a less amount of people would be starving. #BAD13 #13stubc

Sobia- My Favorite…

I have a lot of favorite colors, animals, hobbies and a lot more stuff. My favorite color is probably red but sometimes red isn’t as pretty as other colors. Sometimes I like turquoise. All the colors are pretty but some are prettier to me. My favorite animal is any type of cat like lions, pet cats, tigers and other cats. I also like dogs and but not as much. Sometimes my cat and I draw together but his drawings are his paw prints in the ground.

Drawing is always fun but I love to read because there are so many books that you could read and they all have different plots to them usually. Drawing is fun too but I like reading better. My favorite famous person is Ariana Grande because she is amazing to me and her voice is really good. She has red hair and that’s one of the reasons why I like her. She even has her own website.

Everyone is different in some way and we all like different things. I may like a different book/ author than someone else but we might like the same music. It all depends on what kinds of things that we like and it’s always our choice on what what we like.

Digital Footprint (Activity 4)- Sobia

I preferred the Privacy Student Intro video better than the other video because it was more for me. This is because it had examples and that helps me sometimes in picturing what the video is talking about. Also in the other video there was a person talking and I couldn’t understand that person very well. Partly because of her accent and partly because I just didn’t catch what she said and I had to go back in the video to see exactly what she said. It was nice in the other video because I could just read it from the video instead of having to listen which for me is much harder. In the Privacy Student Intro video there weren’t many things that were hard to understand whereas in the other video they used much bigger words and phrases. In both videos, they explained what digital footprints are and they both had really good examples and visuals to look at. I thought that both videos were great but I preferred the Privacy Student Intro video.

Sobia- Global Issues

Challenge 4 (Activity #2);

The government has shut down in the U.S.A and this makes so many things like sites and parks unavailable for everyone in the U.S.A. They are really being unfair because the people who work at the parks don’t get paid whereas the governors do get paid when they shouldn’t. This is because they aren’t doing anything. Some governors are nice and don’t accept the money whereas other governors accept the money and are very unfair to the people that work to get that money. Some people are still yet to decide what they are going to do: accept the money or not accept the money. I could see why some people would accept the money because they might need it to maintain their family and their house . If they have a mansion and still want more money than they might as well give it to someone that needs to keep getting the right amount of food or someone who is just trying to do a nice thing like donate something to the needy and not spend the money on themselves like certain people are doing. The government has also shut down certain websites that aren’t bad in any way but in fact are very useful, like a site for making graphs which I had to use for science.  I wonder why the government is still accepting the money and being shut down for so long but they should try and convince other governors to negotiate something with the president. I hope that they will both come to an agreement that works for everyone.

Sobia- My Town

The Hudson Valley has so many places to go and see including the Hudson Walkway  over the Hudson River, the Galleria Mall (which is a mall in Poughkeepsie,) and so many more places. One of my favorite places to go to is one of the restaurants called Red Lobster because it has great food even though I don’t eat the Lobster because there is still mac and cheese and their bread which is famous in my family. Also I love to see the lobsters that they have in the tank when you walk into the restaurant. Another place I like to go to is the Hudson Walkway because I like to ride my bike there with my family which I do sometimes. The Hudson Valley is a really nice place to go and I love living there.

 

Sobia About Me

Hi my name is Sobia. I am 10 years old and I go to school at Poughkeepsie Day School. I live in the Hudson Valley with my mom, my dad, my two brothers and my sister who are all older than me. My favorite color is red, but now I’m starting to like violet. I also have a spinny chair in my room which I like to sit in on and go on the computer or read or write. I came to PDS when I was in fourth grade but now I’m in sixth grade. I like to ride my bike on my driveway because it is really long and I like to go on the grass which is next to my driveway. My favorite season is winter because I love to ski, sled and make snowmen. Also it’s funny to watch my cat go around in the snow when we get a lot of snow because it is hard for him to get through the snow. I am really happy to be back at school and I hope it is going to be a great year.

This is my sister ^
