As we learned for our assembly, hunger is a world wide problem. There is enough food in teh world, but not everyone has access to it. After watching this video one could feel helpless, or one could feel motivated.
Check out ten kids (just like you) that used the motivation and started charities to help others. (source: http://www.buzzfeed.com/nakedjuice/incredible-charities-started-by-children) Leave a comment answering one of the two prompts: 1. What part of the video grabbed your attention and why? 2. What is a problem you see that needs solving and what are you going to do about it? Leave a comment and respond to a peer's comment by Wednesday.

A problem I see is that people all around the world are wasting food because of the amount of food that is wasted more than thousands of people because of the waste of food.

You are TOTALLY right Gabriel, and also when we are like: "Mom can you buy me oreos? Mom can you buy me icecream? Mom can you..... She goes and buy them, but we don`t stop to think, I have a house a really good school, friens, a Family, na there`re people hungry, that don`t have a Family, nor a place to live, NOTHING!!!

I agree with Gabriel because if someone asks you about the hunger in the world you would say is big but you wouldn't really know it.But when you see the pictures you see how bad it is.

The part that caught my attention was the first part where the countries' names appeared. I didin't know (well... Kind of but...) that all these countries had children dying because of lack of food.

I agree with you, Sally, when we are wasting so much food, over 1 billion people around the world is hungry.

I really was surprised at the number of countries that has people starving and even though I researched it, I was surprised at a lot of the facts, especially that 1 billion people go to bed hungry and that over 160,000 people die every day because they didn't have enough food.

What we should do to help them is wasting less food so it has food enough for them.

The video got my attention because I knew some kids are really in danger, of huner, but I didn't know how they looked like a lot. Then, when I saw it, it had kids with their faces all hurted and sick. Which shocked me so much, like one of the videos that came out related to this one, had a kid with his face all green, and other one had a big bump on his face. Which made me feel something wierd.

Question 1: I think the part that got my attention was the person crying because sometimes I imagine me being that person and crying and dying just to get food.

Question 2: I think we need not to give money to them because we don't know what they will do with the money so I think we just should give food and then we know that they will eat.

The part that caught my attention was when all those names of the countries that had people dying from starvation, and only 5 countries are helping them.
