They live in refugee camps… vu%20refugees.jpg e.jpg How would it feel to live in any of these places? How do you think the people feel having to live in such places?

With little or no food and water… 255_refugees300.jpghttp://news.bbc.co.uk/olmedia/ /images/_ _refugees300.jpg &categoryId=5http:// &categoryId=5 How would you feel to only eat every two or three days or just one day a week? How important is clean water? Would you drink unclean water if you knew it would make you sick?

Most of the victims are children… What do these pictures say to you? What is one word you would use to describe these children?
