Chlorine is a chemical element with atomic number 17 and symbol Cl. It is a halogen, found in the periodic table in group 17. Chlorine is a yellow pale green gas. Chlorine compounds are use to clean the pool and keep them sanity. Chlorine has a strong smell, and the bonding between the two atoms is relatively weak which makes the Cl₂ molecule highly reactive. Chlorine gas is a strong oxidizer, which may react with flammable materials. Chlorine could be really choking and poisonous as well.

The Cl stand for an element named, chlorine. I did this symbol in the Adobe photo shop. We had to do this process so that we all could paste our symbol on our class map.

During the International day, we learned about people that were in poverty. I realized that we all can make a difference and those people were in needed of our help. We also did loads of interesting activities that morning.

First i didn’t understand why the theme for the International day was “A day in The Word’s Shoes”. After the speech from Cross Road i began to realize the important of the theme.

All families have to pay the cost of food, rent, sanitation, school, and medication. The cost of food was 100 dollars, the cost of rent was 180 dollars, and the cost of sanitation was 30 dollars. While the school cost was 500 dollars and the medication was 50 dollars. I thought that this  activity was fun and very hard. The activity was fun because we have a chance to meet other people that were assign as our family members and hard because of all the competitions going on around us. Another reason why this activity was hard was because we all have to be quick at making papers bags, and paper bags are not really easy to make. We also had to make enough money to feed our families and keep them free from diseases to be able to survive.

At the end of the day i felt the pain of those people who had to work at a really young age, compare to us. They all have to fight through all the obstacles that was standing in their waysurvival. Each of them have dreams and goals like all of us have and it’s really hard to accomplished in that condition, but i now believe that they all can do it if each of us help. We all can make a difference for a better word. to be able to survive for the next day. I also learned that conditions doesn’t matter to them as much as their
