A tall mountainous landscape, with green trees. The bright blue sky glistened throughout the sparkling blue waters, with no clouds in sight. Above the bright blue water were some boats, ships, yachts floating above it, they stood still like ice on top of the water. The sun, bright as ever and scorchingly hot, it's rays hit me, and a black shadowy person appeared on the ground.

I am a hiker and I travel all around the world climbing different mountains in different countries. I have always enjoyed what I personally do, it was quite lonely hiking by myself. Although I got quite used to it. I continued to climb the rocky mountain, and I got even more exhausted each step up. I might even take a swim at the ocean.

While walking up the rocky mountain, I started getting thirsty. I sat down at the rough, hard, rock, I  and put my bag down. I slowly opened the bag, the small space of the bag was empty. I have forgotten to bring water, I knew I was in trouble, I started panicking but I knew I had to do something.

I stared up looking at the tall bright green trees, under the leaves of the tree were some bananas. But they won't keep me hydrated. I walked slowly trying to save energy, but I was looking for something specific. Then unexpectedly, I saw coconuts from the tree, I climbed the tree and cut off coconut from the tree; I started bashing the shell with a rock, a small opening appeared I drank the juice from the coconut, I knew I would be fine.

Summer Learning Journey - Activity 3 Mass Migration

Day 4 - Teaster Activity: Activity 3 Mass Migration.

As you know Donald Trump, the president of United States of America wanted to build a massive wall to separate the U.S.A from Mexico. Donald Trump's plan to build a wall was very pugnacious, meaning that some people strongly agree with his idea and some strongly disagree.

For this activity, let’s imagine that Donald Trump called you up and asked for your opinion on this controversial issue.

On your blog, please tell us what you think about his plan to build a wall between the U.S.A and Mexico. Is it a good idea or a bad idea? Why do you think so?

I honestly don't agree with the idea of build a wall to separate the U.S.A from Mexico.  Also, the majority of US citizens believe that the wall is not a good idea and it shouldn't be a priority for the president. Anyways I don't think that it is not a good idea to separate U.S.A from Mexico.
