The good thing about this picture is that lots of kids are playing and having fun. The bad thing is that they are playing in a parking lot. They have to play in the parking lot because they can’t go inside the school and play.

Lo bueno sobre esta foto es que muchos niños están jugando y divirtiéndose. Lo malo es que están jugando en el estacionamiento. Tienen que jugar en el estacionamiento porque no pueden ir adentro de la escuela y jugar.

The store closed because they were fixing the freeway and nobody can get in and buy anything. It was the only grocery store in Fairmed. They should make a new store and parking lot.

La tienda cerro porque estaban reparando la autopista y nadie puede entrar y comprar nada. Era la única tienda de comida en Fairmead. Deberían de hacer una tienda y estacionamiento nuevos.

This is an abandoned house and is not good for us because it is just taking up space and making Fairmead look like trash when there can actually be something new.

Esta es una casa abandonada y no es bueno para nosotros porque solo esta ocupando espacio y haciendo que Fairmead se vea como basura cuando en realidad podría haber algo nuevo.

Kids can get hurt by jumping the fence. They jump the school fence to go play soccer. They should make a park that can be opened. We need a PARK in Fairmead.

Los niños se pueden lastimar al saltar el alambrado. Ellos saltan el alambrado para ir a jugar futbol. Deverian hacer un parque que pueda estar habierto. Necesitamos un PARQUE en Fairmead.

We need one market place where we can get groceries. It affects us because now groceries aren’t available for 5 miles…not within walking distance.

Necesitamos un mercado donde podamos obtener comida. Nos afecta porque ahora la comida esta disponible hasta en 5 millas….no la podemos obtener yendo a pie .
