Poverty - By Aya Al Nouri
Imagine that 6 billion,700 million people live on Earth. Have you ever thought about is there the approtunity for all people to drink, have money, eat and be safe? No, and this poorness is called poverty.
Many people in this world are Poor, in every country and town there is an amount of poverty. For example Jordan has much less amount of poverty than South Africa. Now, there's a mistake the poor people do... They bring *reproduce* 10 children(average) because this is the only thing that the can become happy with. However, the don't think that the more people our planet is filled with, the more POVERTY WE WILL FACE!
People in South Africa are facing EXTREME POVERTY.They do not have enough money to live. They are really surviving extreme poverty, which is huge. Some of the fathers and mothers let their young (five years old son/daughter) work! Why? Is this fair? Or is it fair to let children ask for money? What is the father doing? He should go make money to educate his children. However, this problem happens with some of the families.
We should try our best to stop poverty, I am not saying that we should STOP poverty.. Because we can't stop poverty all over the world. But we can HELP reducing poverty at least in Jordan. I will not keep on repeating how people are facing poverty... But I want to note that we CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE. We should work together hand by hand to make a difference.

Grade 7 - Post by Dana Madanat
Welcome to ASG's Time Machine. In this time machine you will travel to the past, and you will enter the world of the Byzantine and Muslim Civilizations.
You'd better get used to wild animals because this year we are going to travel to Africa and learn about Africa's civilizations. After that we will go to where the Olympics were held, Rome (Olympia).
So, you'd better hurry, it's time for the Journey.
