Redaction Oliver Twist

Hello, we are Jesús Fernández and Pau Vilaró, and we will talk about the orphanages in Dicken's times. Our opinion, in that in those times, the conditions were very poor, in comparation of the orphanages of today. In this years, the environment of the orphanages is better, than another years. Today, the orphanages are really good conditions, there are very acondicionanted and are part of the governament of a state. We don`t live this conditions, becouse we live in a family, and in spain, the conditions of the orphanages are really good. I don't like it anything, becouse is a son bad thing of his rutine has a lot of luck becouse a lot of children lie on that buildings.

6.Imagine that you can change things at that time. Mention the kind of things you’ll improve and why.

We’d fix the dirtiness problem that existed in the streets in the Dickens’ time, because we think it’s important to keep the environment clean in order to prevent diseases. Also, we’d want to change the way of living that the little boys had to live; it was too hard, they lost their innocence too soon. The children didn’t have to act as adults but like the children did. The next thing we’d change about Dicken’s society is the work conditions of the factories proletarians: they worked all the day long- without rests of any type, without drinking or eating at all- in overwhelming temperatures and dangerous environments for wages which couldn’t cover all their necessities.

Finally, we’ll change the fake English rich people way of life, based on winning money by torturing the poor ones who didn’t have the necessary to live.

Children conditions at the time

In that time if you were a lucky boy with a lucky parents too, you had a good education in a school, a good diet an other advantages.

But everything can be different if you are an orphan. You didn’t have any opportunity, you must in an orphanage. Place that all the children must work all the day with poor conditions. If one boy  doesn't  want work the responsable person beat the boy until he start working.

 

Children conditions at the time. Do you think orphans were treated propriety ?

In Victorian ages, the children were living in bad conditions, they had to work very hard in the factories and a lot of hours to earn a low salary.

Sometimes the kids had to steal rich people to survive, for example, in the film, many children were kidnapped from an organization that used the boys to steal jewellery or food in the markets.

Many of the boys who worked in the factories were being subjected to hunger and dangers of the machines of different types of industry, and many of them died.

The orphans were treated very bad in the Victorian ages, their host families gave them the minimum food and had few clothes.

Dear Diary,                                                                                            

Today I learned how to steal. Maybe you think I’m a bad person but Fagin is a nice man and he steals too. He gives me food and boys treat me so well… I hope I will stay here and I won’t return to the workhouse, even if I’m afraid of Bill. He has a horrible dog, he loves yelling to Nancy and he is more scaring than the “big pigs” with all their money and power. He deserves death and hell.

Tomorrow I’m going with Dodger to the market. I haven’t gone outside yet, I’m thrilled and scared, what if the police catch us and I must return? I’m preying for tomorrow to be an excellent day.

I can smell the sausages! I’m going to dinner now!

See you tomorrow.

the new boy in the school

Dear Diary:

Today I have gone to school at 7:00 o’clock.

In the middle of the first class a new boy arrived and the other boys were looking at him. This child came from another school and already knew a friend of my school, my friend told me that this child was outed to his old school and I am the other friends we talked.

When I arrived home, I explained it to my mother and she said to me that I had to help this boy to make some friends. The next afternoon, when I arrived in the school, I talked to the new boy and I said to him that I would help him to make some new friends, and he thanked it to me. And after that, he started to be a very happy boy.
