Grade 5 Unit of Inquiry Site

Grade 5 Teachers & Students  //  For Unit Two,

We're inquiring into how unequal or irresponsible distribution or sharing of finite natural resources can lead to conflict, and how we can resolve and manage conflict.

We need to understand first of all how all resources and humans are all connected, what the different perspectives are about sharing, and how we can be responsible for one another.

Thanks for sharing your ideas, perspectives, and new understanding!

Child Soldiers

I think grown up solders use children because they wont kids. Maby the grown ups think the kids are more helthey and think the kids are cliver thin the grownups. I also think the grown up soldier use children because the children can run fast. This is what I think.

When I was a soldier

Posted by email 
When I was a soldier By Valerie Zenatti.
The book I am reading about child soldiers, is called 'when I was a soldier'. It's a true story about Valerie Zenatti when she was about 18 she had to go to war with her two best friends: Rahel and Yulia. This book was very interesting though I have not finished reading it all. It shows a life of being in an army.

Child Soldiers

I think that I am very lucky/happy that I am in this family because some
poor families in Africa send their children to war so that their parents can get
money.
After I read some websites, it said that sometimes they let their children
decide if they want to go war and become child soldiers or not.
My question is, "If the parents are sending their children to war to make
money, why don't the parents go to war and become a soldier?"

After I read some websites about a organization that helps Child Soldiers,
I felt I was vey lucky to be born in a good country with no Child Soldiers.
One question is that "How do the children feel when the are fighting?"

I was wondering what kind of things and processes organisations go through
to help child soldiers. Also, around how many child soldiers can they
actually help?

Why cant grown op soldiers get more grown up soldiers and don't use
children? I think this Q is important because if the people get more grown up
soldiers children wont be heart and pass away.
