Kildare - May 5th

Hi all!!!

• democracy
• environment
• poverty
• disease, coronavirus these days...
• population

⭐ We went over the new vocabulary and commented on the United Nations Declaration of the Rights of Children and shared this SIMPLIFIED VERSION with you. You can read it again!

⭐ Here are some very important articles in the Declaration

Every child has these rights, among others:

Article 22: You have the right to protection and help if you are a refugee.

This is someone who has to leave their home because of war or another emergency in the area where they live.

Article 24: You have the right to health care, such as good hospitals and doctors, and access to both clean water and nutritious food.

Article 27: You have the right to basic needs: food, clothing and shelter. If there is a scarcity of these needs, or not enough, others should help you.

Article 29: You have the right to be treated with tolerance, no matter what ethnicity you are. This means people should respect those from all countries and backgrounds.

Article 30: You have the right to your particular culture, religion and language. People must respect diversity.

Article 38: You have the right not to be a victim of war. Adults must protect you during wars, including civil war  within countries.

It was signed by countries belonging to the United Nations in 1989. In Argentina, it became a law in 1990 and was included in our  Constitución Nacional in 1994.

⭐ Remember to have a white page ready for tomorrow!

See you tomorrow at 3pm!

Hugs,
