I don't understand why people have to be so racist these days and be mean just because they do not like the color of someone's skin all the way they look I don't understand why their stereotypes in this world and that they think they can say whatever they want not fully knowing about their culture I don't understand why the bad conflict with worlds that cause a bad invited but most of all I don't understand why because a person's death there're so much protest about a person's death and why all of this has to lead to stores being on fire people beating up cops that have been fighting to save peoples lives what I do understand is that there could be a different protest for this but without the fires in the community and people getting hurt and racism can stop because we all are equal and all humans and stereotypes are people that don't know a lot of people and just judge based on appearance

I don't understand
why did you
why did you leave me?
Why didn't you care?
But most of all

What I understand is
why you didn't understand
why you never cared
Why you did it!

If I were in charge of the world
I'd end child hungry
I'd end animal and child abuse
I'd end terrorism. No more 911
If I were in charge of the world
there'd Be food for everyone
there'd be homes for homeless people
there'd be peace, no  violence
If I were in charge of the world,
you wouldn't murder people
or couldn't rob,  you would be grateful
or wouldn't fight people
if I were in charge of the world.
Ivy, 633

If I were in charge of the world
Id live in the white house,  party all night
and  celebrate Christmas three times a year .
if I were in charge of the world, 
there'd be no violence,  and we'd go to school four times a week.
if I were in charge of the world, 
you wouldn't have homework,  you couldn't kill snails, 
you would see a soccer game for free, and get an iPhone for free. 
If I were in charge of the world. 
-Oscar 633

I don't understand
why people hate snails
why people eat snails
why people kill snails.
But most of all I don't
understand why  9 +10 isn't 21

why I like snails
why snails ate so cool.
Oscar  633

If I were in charge of the world
I'd  make communities safer
Make better laws  and
I'd protect children from being abused.
if I was in charge of the world
there'd be safer and protected schools.
Ways to identify terrorists
and to keep bad people off the streets
If I were in charge of the world,  you  wouldn't
have to pay a lot of money for  things.
You couldn't abuse little insects and animals, 
you would be safer walking on the streets,
or get hurt when walking on the streets
If I were in charge of the world.
Bryan 633

I don't understand
I don't understand why people talk begins each others backs.
Why people like to harm  other people
and why people threaten each other
but most of all
went people fight for dumb reasons
why people built others
and why people use harmful words.
What I do understand is
why people get distracted
why people have trouble understanding things
and why some people do get along with each other.
Bryan  633

If I were in charge of the world,

I’d have brand new stores,

schools to learn in and teachers that teach.

If I were in charge of the world,

there’d be clubs, no gun shops,

no gun toys because that’s how kids learn violence.

If I were in charge of the world,

you wouldn’t see clubs or gangs no more,

You couldn’t play at night or day,

you would only play in the afternoon.

If I were in charge of the world.

Christopher C Class 633

I don’t understand

how people get arrested for no reason

How people like football more than soccer,

how people say that 9+10=21.

But most of all I don’t understand

Wy people get killed,

why there are gangs outside, and

Why people have to pay soccer players.

What I do understand is

That 9+10=19 not 21

Why people care about shoes a lot and

Why people hate snails.

Christopher C Class 633

If I were in charge of the world, I’d

Have a big house

I’ll have people help me

I’ll have many shoes

If I were in charge of the world,

There’d be no hunger

No violence

No attacks

If I were in charge of the world,

You wouldn’t talk back to me

You couldn’t annoy me

You would clean up after me, or I will

Hurt you.

If I were in charge of the world.

Christopher C Class 633

I used to misbehave, but now I behave

I always clean my room, and I never leave it a mess

Once I hit a snail, but now I love snails

I could drown a fish

I would try to drown a fish

Christopher R Class 633

If I were in charge of the world

I’d stop crimes

I’d stop the fighting

I’d stop the drugs

If I were in charge of the world, there’d

be houses for everyone,

there’d be money for everyone

there’d be fun things to do for everyone.

If I were in charge of the world, you wouldn’t do crimes!

I Remember

I remember me laughing

I remember you crying

Class 633

If I were in charge of the world

I’d make more animal shelters

Take care of my elders

Stop global warming

If I were in charge of the world, there’d be

Less taxes

More companies to get higher stocks

More rockets to the moon

If I were in charge of the world,

you wouldn’t violate people

you wouldn’t have to pay for wifi

If I were in charge of the world.

Javier G.

Class 633

I used to watch movies but now I read the books based on the movie

I always use my bike but I never fell ff

I never hiked before. Once I climbed a big rock now I jog

I could do a cartwheel

I would eat three pizzas

I never went to Florida

But I might go in the summer

I can’t ski

But I can ride a skateboard

I won’t fight a wolf

But I might help a person

I used to ride a scooter

Now I ride a bike.

Javier G.

Class 633

If I were in charge of the world, I’d

make food more healthy to eat

Take care of old people with good doctors

Give legal papers to people that need it, not for

other purposes.

If I were in charge of the world, there’d be

Less robbing

Less killing

Clean cities.

If I were in charge of the world, you wouldn’t

be able to kill no one, you couldn’t steal from other

people, you would have a nice house, and have healthy food.

If I were in charge of the world.

Class 633

I used to leave the house without permission, 
but now I ask permission to leave.
I always hang out with my friends, but
I never stay too late.
Once I used to play dolls all the time, but
now I leave the house and hang out with my best friend.
I could do things by myself now.
I would leave the house a lot.
I never stay too late.
But I might stay longer if my mom lets me.
I can't rule myself.
But I can follow my mom's rules and stay safe.
I won't listen to others.
But I might listen to others if I'm sad.
I used to do things with my friends,
Now I do things on my own.

I remember that life was more easy when I was little
I remember how innocent I was.

And
I remember my dreams
I remember my family so together
I remember the hot hugs from family

But my favorite memory is yet to come.
Justin M/C
Class 633

I don't understand
Why people die
Why were weapons made
Why is there violence.
But most of all I don't understand
What 9/11 happened
Why Hitler killed Jews
Why do kids suffer a lot.
What I do understand is
Why we can't regret stuff
Why we should not kill
Why we should not rob.
Justin M/C
Class 633

I

I remember the first day of school

How it was really scary.

I remember being in PS 149 and graduating

I remember my first day going

To school in my country

And…

I remember getting many awards for being a good student

I remember my sister graduating middle school

I remember going to Tennessee

And California

Even…

I remember when I was little, 

hitting the sheep because they wouldn’t walk

But my favorite memory is yet to come.
