Did you know kids are making your clothes?.

In class I had to write a recount from the perspective (view) of a child working in a sweatshop.I chose to be a kid working in Costa Rico.

WALT use descriptive words and phrases to enhance the mood of fear or sadness

I think it was fun to write a story about being in Costa Rico making clothes.I did some research and chose to be in Costa Rico.I think i'm successful because I have sentences that are sad or scary.


Name: Kaya
Making clothes for Nike
On an early Tuesday morning. I headed to the factory. Ohh by the way i’m Eleni, anyway. I was early as always. Being late is the worst. Cause you had to make extra clothes did I mention I worked at the Nike factory in Costa Rica. Yeah, so you had to make extra clothes ; you didn’t get anything to eat, unless you have finished making an extra twenty five clothes.You had to make twenty clothes already.So you had to make forty five clothes if you were late.


Minutes later I heard our boss Rocko yell at Rea and demanded her to make an extra twenty five.“You're late, worker ten once your done your twenty make an extra twenty five now!” (Rocko called us by our station numbers because he forgot our real names) “Yes sir” She quivered and walked back to her station.My heart was pounding away in my chest when our boss stopped at my station and opened his mouth.I thought he was going to say make an extra twenty five and no rice for you,but he said “Well done”.

A smile was growing on my face. Beep! The bell for lunch rang.We all left our stations and lined up for our bowls of rice.If you were lucky enough you could get bread with your rice. Yum. We had ten minutes to eat our food ; get back to work.Hours later.Everyone had a twenty minute break.My friend Maria and I could smell something horrible.Like a room full of corpses.Yuck.We were daydreaming that we were in cool places like Rainbow

End,Arcades,Water parks and going hiking.Then… I fainted.A couple seconds later I woke up again. “Whew” Maria said while she wiped her sweat.”Ten more minutes” the boss yelled. We jumped onto the roof and looked down.We could see five kids working at their stations ; they were late.They didn’t get any food.They were also getting hit by belts.We saw our boss walking to the door so we jumped down just in time.He walked through the door.“Five more minutes” he yelled waking everyone up.


We told everyone what happend.”We saw him hit them with belts” I whispered.Everyone had at least more than one belt mark from where they were hit.”Back to work” Rocko demanded.Hours later.It was one pm. It was time to go home.Most of us didn’t have homes so stayed at work or slept outside.Tommorow I will start all over again except on Wednesday I work twenty hours and get four hours of sleep.Thank you for reading my story.
