Kid Tsunami Survivors



Some Japanese tsunami victims had to leave everything behind, including their houses and all of their things.  I would like you to think about the things that you value.

Imagine that you are collecting donations to send to kids who lost their possessions in the tsunami.  Brainstorm at list of at least 5 objects that you could send them to make them feel at home.  Start by thinking of things that you love and value.  Be creative and remember to think about the small things in life that help you keep a positive attitude.

Once you have posted your response, read the responses posted by your peers and reply thoughtfully to at least two other students.  Compliment strong points, make connections, ask questions and build on ideas shared!

Mr. Boettger  :-)

    If I were able to send five things to help the kids in Japan it would be,

    #1- A ball- I would send them a ball so that they would have somthing to play with and have somthing to do.

    #2- I would send them colouring stuff so that they would have somthing to do if it was raining or if they wanted somthing to do if they were sick.

    #3- A stuffy- I would send them a stuffy because if they were upset or worried they would have somthing to hold on to.

    #4- If I could, I would send them a play ground. The reason why is because they could go outside and play if they wanted to.

    #5- If I were able to figure out some of the things that were in their house that they really wanted back I would send that to them.
