Write about what comes to mind when you hear the word, Africa.

  1. When I hear the name Africa I think of animals. I love to think about the lions and their cubs running around in the sun, the elephants grazing in the sun all day long washing themselves off with water because they can't take the heat. I also think about how all those kids in Africa are sweating and running around barefoot because they don't have enough money to buy shoes. I feel badly for the kids, but I know that the animals are having fun.

  2. Have you learned or do you know anything about Africa? What I think of when people talk about Africa is unlucky and lucky people.
    I think of unlucky people because I know of many people that can't afford to feed themselves, let alone their own children. Those families have to work endless hours to make somewhere around a dollar! This is not even enough to supporst themselves.
    But I also think of lucky people, those whose families and communities that were helped by people that really care about them and instead of letting them suffer, give them what they can and let them know they care.

  3. A desert full of life
    Facing unknown danger
    Racing with the wild and time
    Imaginary oasis calls from afar
    Children without mothers
    A desert full of life

  4. A beautiful place to live
    Far away from all your problems
    Running with all the animals
    Interacting with the lions
    Chasing all the birds
    And calling all the animals
