“As Salva walked away, the same thoughts kept going through his head in rhythm with his steps. Where are we going? Where is my family?”

“He recognized a few people- a woman with a baby, two men, a teenage girl- but no one he knew well. Still, it was comforting to see them.”

How and Why?

Vocabulary word: relief

Salva wandered around until he heard the words “Loun-Ariik! The village of Loun-Ariik, here!” Relief flooded through him. That was his village.

Context Clues

When students are attempting to determine the meanings of unknown words they use the following: schema: is knowledge you already know about a topic. When

you learn more about something you think about what you are already know and then you connect the new information to your schema. Its the thoughts in your head. When you read a book and you make a connection (text to self/ text to world/text to text) you are connecting it to your schema.

Exploitation of children by big business in Pakistan has gone on far to long.

Pakistan Thesis Statement

Pakistan

The Indus River flows through eastern Pakistan. This river valley was the site of one of the world’s oldest civilizations.In A.D. 712, Arab Muslims brought Islam to the region. Around the year 1000, Muslims from Central Asia built their kingdom in the Indus River valley. In the 1600s, the British East India Company set up trading posts in India, includingthe region that is now Pakistan. In the 1700s, the rulingMughal Empire grew weak, and the company took control.Under British rule, Muslims lost power in the government, while Hindus gained power. Differences between Hindus and Muslims led to violence.

History of Pakistan

On August 14, 1947, India gained independence. Pakistan was declared a separate Muslim nation. Millions of Muslims living in India moved to Pakistan, and Hindus in Pakistan moved to India. Pakistan included East Pakistan and West Pakistan, but 1,000 miles separated the regions. War broke out between the two regions. In 1971, East Pakistan became Bangladesh

Eleven-year-old Imtyaz goes to school in the mornings and works in the afternoons in this city's thriving soccer ball industry.

About 7,000 children between the ages of 5 and 14 have no time for school because they work full-time manufacturing soccer balls, earning about 50 cents for each ball they produce.

Child Labor and Nike

As the industry begins to clean up its act, big buyers like Nike, Reebok and Adidas have set up model factories that use adult-only workers. The workers also are paid slightly better -- almost $2 a day.

Observers say a better solution would be for factories to pay high enough wages to adult workers so that their children do not need to work.

Solution

Many local people feel reform is doing more harm than good. They believe Western pressure may deprive local families of another source of income and drive children to other hazardous jobs.
