Big slums and Small slums
All the people that we see do end up somewhere, and everybody ends up somewhere. Those
places where they end up at are called slums, but their entire family move with them. The people
that live in the slums walk on dirty water, nowhere to sleep, and the water covers all the streets.
The families in the slums have dirty water, because nobody cleans their water.
The dirty water is a big problem in the slums because people get real sick “Urbanization in
the increase in area or population of city" makes slums have more people. "Largest slum in
Kenya and there is one in Africa too" it is known for the population that they have there. Slums
are not a good place to live at also the people live their because they don’t have jobs. Not only
how dirty the water is and the people have anywhere to sleep because they are sharing their
house with family.
If you have a big family they will have to sleep with you to because the homes were not
that big " Homes are made out of mud and very crowded dirty" slums are not well clean or taken
care of. "With less than a dollar you can survive" that you can live just with a dollar .Most
people that live at the slums only earn like a dollar. Not only do they not have room to sleep
there is also dirty water on the streets.
The children play in the streets with all the dirty water because that where they play outside
even if they is dirty water in the street. The toys that the kids play with are made out of "Made
toys out of simple objects". Kids make the toys out of different things to play with because
that’s all they can do. We should care about the people in the slums because it does not matter
where they live they are still human beans just like us.
The way those people lost their homes is they did not have enough money to pay their
homes or lost their jobs. People in slums walk on dirty water, nowhere to sleep, and the water
covers the streets. We should care where they sleep, the kids play at and what they play with, and
how did they ever get that dirty water in the streets. All of us should care about what they do no
matter where they live or how poor they are. They are still people no matter what they do
because they are still human beans.
