Because_ As a middle school student, _Yours,_Dear students, I think we should do something to care about stay-at-home children. Because_ As a middle school student, _Yours,_WhyHowWriters namesocietygovernmentparentsthemselves Many Chinese kids, known as stay-at-home children, hardly ever see their parents, because their parents are migrant workers(外来工). The large number of stay-at-home children has already become a social issue(问题). If left unsolved, it will cause serious problems, Wang Zhenyao, director of the China Philanthropy Research Institute, told China Daily. The education level of adults supervising(监管) these children is generally not that high. They can only take care of the childrens personal safety and daily living, being unable to care about their educational and spiritual needs. Meanwhile, the absence of parental support will make some stay-at-home children lack self-confidence. To solve this problem, the government is taking action. For example, 30 provinces and cities let certain children to go to school and take the college entrance exam in the city where their parents are. However, Wang suggested that the country do more, such as making policies(政策) encouraging migrant workers to work in their hometowns. He also said that a well-balanced(均衡的) child welfare(福利) system(制度) is needed. These children are the future of the nation, so they deserve(值得) our loving care and protection, Wang said.Step 12: Homeworkboarding school, seldom, be proud of take pride in, be absent from, influence fail the examination, in person1.jigsaw reading(share reading)2.similar expressionstake care of/look after1.learn to care about boarding students & stay-at-home children2.learn to understand parents a story about Li Wensummarywords & phrasesreading abilityaffectionStep 13: SummaryBetween parents and us needs a heart to understand.We should be brave to face any difficulties and be confident in our life.坚强面对困难，自信面对生活。坚强面对困难，自信面对生活。父母和孩子之间需要一颗理解的心。父母和孩子之间需要一颗理解的心。Step 14: Chicken soup & useful websiteshttp:/acwf.people.com.cn/GB/99061/102368/ http:/www.cfcac.org
