In part 1 of chapter 7 in The Color of My Words, we learn about the arguments regarding Ana Rosa's village. The villagers argue that they are the owners of the land; the government and representatives argue that they own the land. We are going to explore both sides of the argument. Then, you will decide whose side you are on based on the arguments presented in the book. As you work on this Padlet, continue to revisit the question: Who has the stronger argument regarding owning the land? This IS NOT which argument you agree with; it is which argument for land ownership is stronger.

Child prodigy Adora Svitak says the world needs “childish” thinking: bold ideas, wild creativity and especially optimism. Kids’ big dreams deserve high expectations, she says, starting with grownups’ willingness to learn from children as much as to teach.

I believe someone is an adult when they are responsible, have a job, are orginized, are older and ect like or example moms are all that.An adult is the one who has to mantain there family so they al east have something to ate and where to live because like that they are taking a responsibility to hold the family.
I believe childhood ends at age 21 because at the age of 15 you are still a kids go on partys and acted all goofy, messy,silly,and funny.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe someone is an adult when they know what they're doing, they are experienced because as a kid you start off to learn stuff, as you get older you start to get the hang of it, you are experienced. I believe childhood end at age 13 because that's the age kids become teens, they are more responsible and kinda mature. All of that leads to someone becoming an adult.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe childhood ends when a kid wants to start to become an adult. There is no such thing as when you turn into this age you're an adult no you become one ones you are ready to become an adult. I know someone that is messy, goofy, loud, and funny and she is one of my favorite teachers.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe someone is an adult when they sell certain stuff that they don't like that are toys Adults are mature at 21 and most of them are Strict,Mature,And Responsible they probably want respect because they are older than kids.

I believe childhood ends at age 12 because when you are at age 12 you are basically a pre-teen and you star maturing and stop playing with toys and responsible for your self.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe someone is an adult when they are either ready, or when they are 13 because they could've gone through a traumatic event either it was with a family member or anything else, can cause them to change how they acts with themselves and with other people. (any age) I think that they are more better as an adult at age 13 because they know everything that a teenager needs to know, and is experienced in almost everything, but not as "adulty" things. I also believe that when they are ready because my older brother acts like the traits on the child side on the board, but I really like it though since it's funny sometimes.

I believe someone is an adult when they turn age 18 Because if you choose to go to collage and don't have a full scholarship and came out with a 50/50 (you pay for half years , and school pays for the other half)that would mean you would have to pay the fees ,and that is something adults do pay taxes and rent .
I believe Childhood ends at 16 as that is when your more into your teenage years and are maybe not as immature

I believe childhood ends at 13 because you become a teenager and some of them are responsible for taking care of little siblings and they start learning more and some stop being playful and stop playing with toys. They also start learning new stuff like how to cook.

The villagers argue that they own the land because by the law that island is the villegers island the goverment can not sell it , they can only sell it if the villigers allow it.

In the passage on page 97 ,it states,"Everybody here, all our families have lived on this land for more than the amount of years needed to own it. We are the owners of this land. They can't sell it unless we let them. It's the law!"
"

In my opinion, this is a [weak] argument about land ownership because they are fighting the athourisisem/ dictator goverment and the goverment will not care they will not fathom the law becuase they are powerfull.

# data[].attributes.body
The villagers argue that own the land because they said that it was a law unless the villagers gave them permission.
In the passage on page 97, It states ¨ We are the owners of this land. They cant sell it unless we let them. Its the law! ¨
In my opinion this is a strong argument about the land ownership because If something is a law everyone needs to follow it or else they will have to get pressed charges or worse.

# data[].attributes.body
The Villagers argue that they own the land because they lived there for a long time, it is part of there life,It is a law that it is there land.

In the passage on page 96,97 It states "The people who lived in my village had lived there so long they could not  remember who built the first house." "They cant make us leave our homes, he said slowly,Everybody here, all our families have lived on this land for more than the amount of years needed to own it,."

In my opinion this is a Strong argument about the land ownership because they are stating that there relatives and there families have lived there for so long and they had friends there,It was a law that it was there land, Guario and the people that live there want to fight for the land and Unite together so they can keep the land and not sell it.

# data[].attributes.body
The villagers  argue that they own the land because they have lived on there land for a long time now and they a willing to fight for the land.In the passage 97 it states¨We are the owners of the land.They can´t tell us to sell it unless we let them.It's the law!¨.In my opinion, this is a weak argument about land ownership because they are in a dictatorship were they can't say what they want only the government can a say.

# data[].attributes.body
The villagers argue that they own the land because they said that they lived there longer and the village is like part of their life and its the law that it is their land

In the passage on page 96 it states "The people who lived in my village had lived there so long they could not remember who built the first house or where one persons property lines stopped and another began"

In my opinion, this is a strong argument about land ownership because there saying they lived there longer and its the law that its their land and mr moreno cant take away that land away from them

# data[].attributes.body
The villagers argue that they own the land because it is part of their life, they have lived there for so long.

In the passage on page 96, it states "My village had lived there so long they could not remember who built the first house or where a person's property starts and ends. That was the whole point, we all lived side by side, neighbors, friends.

In my own opinion, this is a strong argument about land ownership because you just can't take away something precious that is already obtained by another person, this land and the people who live in it have a connection between themselves. Their descendants have lived here before. There is even a law that proves their statement.

# data[].attributes.body
The villager argue that they own the land because they've lived there for a very long time and they don't want the land taken away so they are fighting for it.

In the passage on page 97 it states, "Everybody here, all our families have lived on this land for more than the amount of years needed to own it. We are the owners of this land. They can't sell it unless we let them, it's the law!"

In my opinion,this is a strong argument  about land ownership because they are saying that it's the law and that they lived there for more than the amount of years needed and they are fighting for the land so it won't get sold.

# data[].attributes.body
The villagers argue that they own the land because there family build it, they own a big part of the land, they don't have any were else to go if there land is gone. in the passage on page 97 it states "everybody here, all our families have lived on this land for more than the amount of years needed to own this land. they can't sell is unless we let them. it the law." in my opinion this is a strong argument about the land ownership because they have lived on there land for so long that they don't remember who build here first and also they don't want to sell because they have no other place to go and they need that land because it came from people families who used there bear hands to make there land and there houses

# data[].attributes.body
The villagers argue that they own the land because they lived there for years together with working and respecting each families that live there, which also because they consider themselves the owners of the land. In the passage, it states, "The people who lived in my village had lived there so long they could not remember who built the first house or where one persons property lines stopped and another's began. That was the whole point--- we all lived side by side, neighbors, friends, sharing and no one giving a shake of the head to what some big-mouth politician was suddenly saying about dividing up our land.", "Everybody here, all our families  have lived on this land needed to own it. We are the owners of this land. They can't sell it unless we let them. It's the law!"
In my opinion, this is a strong argument due to the fact that they had owned the land because of old ancestors since they lived there for the longest time. This is strong because that they are trying their hardest to keep the land all together and keep the place they live in since they might not have anywhere else to go.

# data[].attributes.body
The villagers argue that they own the land because they found it and claimed it as their own and made properties on that land and their relatives who were before them were also on this land making it their land because they have been here for so long that legally it makes it the villages land , In the passage on page 97 , it states "Everybody here, all our family have lived on this land for more than the amount of years to own it " . In my opinion , this is a Weak argument because it is also said that the villagers were going to fight the government who wanted to take their land but knowing this village is not upper class they would not have many things to protect themselves with unlike the government which is more efficient and have more money so they could buy things to protect themselves

# data[].attributes.body
The villagers argue that they own the land because they lived there for a long period of time,It is a law that it is there land, its a part of there life and if someones going to take there land away from them then they will all get united and fight for there land.
In the passage on the page on page 97 and 98 it states, ¨ Everybody here, all our families have lived on this land for more than the amount of years needed to own it. We are the owner of this land. They can´t sell it unless we let them. Its the law!¨- Page 97
Page 98 -¨It was agreed that our whole village would join together to announce that we weren't interested in selling.¨
In my opinion,this is a weak argument about the land ownership because even tho they keep trying to convince the government to not sell there Island. The government wont care about them and about what they say.

# data[].attributes.body
The government argues that they own the land because they state that they have the right to sell the land.

In the passage on page 104, it states "and the government has the right to sell it to whoever it wants; and the government is selling it now to a big company for them to build hotels, and this would benefit everyone with more jobs."

In my opinion this is a weak argument about land ownership because they might not sell it to a big company that would benefit everyone with jobs, this here is an example of how the government is trying to convince people to let them sell the land. But the people from the village know it all.

# data[].attributes.body
The government argues that they own the land because they say that they have the right to sell it to who ever they want to.

In the passage on page 104, it states, " The government owns this land; and The government has the right to sell it to whomever it wants; and The government is selling it now to a big company for them to build hotels, and this would benefit everyone with more jobs and more tourists."

In my opinion, this is a [weak] argument about land ownership because they say that they are going to sell the island to make it into a better place they say that now but the only thing they are doing is trying to convince the villegers to sell there Island and then BOOM the government wont care about them and foget everything they said about making it a better place

# data[].attributes.body
The government argues that they own the land because they say that the government has a right to sell it to anyone.

In the passage on page 104, It states ¨The government has the right to sell it to whomever it wants, and the government is selling it now to a big company for them to build hotels, and this would benefit everyone with more jobs.¨

In my opinion this is a weak argument about the land ownership because the only reason they have is that there is going to be more jobs for people and to make them work even more and just for that a big company are buying the whole land.

# data[].attributes.body
The villagers argue that they own the land because they are the one's started the island built house and shops and many more and they don't remember who was the first one who built it since they have lived there for a long time and who ever try's to buy or sell the island they are going to fight for the island.

The passage on page 97 and 105 it states that "We are the owners of this land.They can't sell it unless we let them." and on page 105 It states That "After that we became a village of rebels fighting to keep our homes."

In my opinion, this is a good argument about land ownership because the people have word hard for the island they even said that they were going to fight for there land and lived there for a long time but the thing is that they don't have a government.No government then we don't know who's going to get the island because if the villager has a good reason but Mr.Moreno has a better reason then the island is his,If one of the villagers was the government then it obvious who that person is going to choose the person is going to choose the villagers and it just not fair.

Mr. Moreno also has a good argument because he said that he was going to make the island a better place like adding new things and building and more. In the passage on page 96 it states that "What some big mouth politician was suddenly saying about dividing up our land.Foreign investors Money for island Improvements and Progress."

Mr. Moreno also has a good argument since we was try to make the villager to be on his side so that he could be the government then sell it he is trying to make the people go to his side by saying he is going to make the island a better place by adding more jobs and more money which make the some villager go on his side since all the people are poor and don't have a lot of jobs and money which makes some of them go to his side but at the same time he could be a bad leader or government and just say that to trick them so he could become the government and sell the island so that he could become rich once he is done is is going to leave them.

So if I had to choose between the villagers or Mr.Moreno I would have to choose The villagers because it could be risky to the people since the new government is now in charge which could be worse or good and maybe it's going to happen more later on the book.

I believe childhood someone is an adult at age 21+ because thats when some people start finishing up with collage and move on the get a proper job and house and car and have all these responsibility's to do.
I believe childhood ends when you start 9th(13-15) grade cause your no longer in middle school your a teenager and you start to get harder work and more taking care of yourself you start to be way more mature.

# data[].attributes.body
The villagers argue that they own the land because they claim its their land cause they have lived there for a long time so it belongs to them. In the passage on page 97 it states "Everybody here, all our families have lived on this land for more than the amount of years needed to own it. We are the owners of this land. They cant sell it unless we let them. Its the law."
In my opinion this is a strong argument about land ownership because they are right they do live there they have all the right to say its theirs oh tho in their type of government it wont matter at all making it just useless.

# data[].attributes.body
The government argues that they own the land because they say so they say they have all the right to just sell it.
In the passage on page 104, it states, "Words like the government owns the land and the government has the right to sell it to whoever it wants"
In my opinion, this is a weak argument about the land ownership because they just state they own it they never give reasons at all they just declare they do which sadly works for them because they have the power and the villagers dont, this probably makes the villagers truculent.

# data[].attributes.body
The villagers argue that they own the land because their whole life is on the land and they are also willing to fight for it. The people there have also lived on the land for so long. They were the ones to keep the land safe and help it grow.

In the passage on page 97, it sates "Everyone here, all our families have lived on this land for more than the amount of years needed to own it. We are the owner of this land. They can't sell it unless we let them. "

In my opinion, this is a strong argument about the land ownership because it shows how much the people really care about their land. And it shows that they will fight the government for the land. And we know that in the story if someone disobeys the governments rules they would be murder. The villagers know that but they are being brave and  willing to fight for their land so they don't get it taken away.

# data[].attributes.body
The government Argues that they own the land because they say that its their land and that they can do whatever they want to with it .
In the passage on page 104 it states "Words like the government owns this land; and the government has the right to sell it to whoever it wants ."
In my opinion this is a weak Argument about land ownership because  for someone who is in a position in a government it is a very weak statement but who knows maybe they might have a trick under their sleeve once the village starts to get physical.

# data[].attributes.body
The government argues that they own the land because they state they own the land.

In the passage on page 104 it states "and the government has the right to sell it to whomever it wants, and the goverment is selling it now to a big company for them to build hotels,and this would benefit everyone with more jobs and more tourists".

In my opinion this is a weak argument about  land ownership because the government says he can sell it without telling having permission. and they were going to sell it to a big company, the people that live there are truculent because there land is getting sold by the government without there con-scent.

# data[].attributes.body
The villagers argue that hey own the land because they have lived there for years and they don`t even remember who was the first person that made the first house on the land.

In the passage on page 97 it states ¨ Everybody here, all our families have lived on this land for more then the amount of years needed to own it. We are the owners of this land. They cant sell it unless we let then. Its the law.¨

In my opinion, this is a strong argument about land ownership because the Villagers say that they can not sell it because there family`s have lived there more long then the government has and they will fight for there land even if it cause them to lose there lives.

# data[].attributes.body
The government argues that they own the land because they have more power and control of the land.

In the passage on page 104 it states "Words like the government owns this land; and the government has the right to sell it to whomever it wants;"

In my opinion, this is a weak argument about land ownership because the government hasn't really done anything good for the land and since they are in a higher class and have more power than the rest of the people they choose what they want to do. And the government wants to sell the land just for money.

# data[].attributes.body
The villager argue that they own the land because they can't sell the land without them letting them.

In the passage 97 it states "We are the owners of the land ." "they can't tell us to sell it unless we let them." "It's the law."

In my opinion, this is a weak argument because they are dictatorship and the government so they don't care about the law.

# data[].attributes.body
i believe someone is an adult when they are responsible and mature with them selves and others because they  know what they are doing and whats right from wrong.
i believe childhood ends at 16+ because your starting to become a young adult and start learning to respect others and have more experience with stuff

# data[].attributes.body
the villagers argue that they own the land because they lived on it for so long that they don't even remember for how long, they also say that its a law and the government cant sell unless with there permission
In the passage on 97 it states" we are owners of this land. they cant sell it unless we let them, its law!"
in my opinion this is a weak argument about land owner ship because they live in a dictator government and the government can just take the land, because they really dont have much power
