Your sentences are fine, and there is no need to correct or change any of them. The only mistake is in the title, which I've corrected.

Are these simple sentences right?*

I open the refrigerator.
I look inside the refrigerator.
I'm hungry.
I want something to eat.
I see a package.
It is a package of hot dogs.
Six hot dogs are in the package.
I take two hot dogs out of the package.
I close the refrigerator.
I put the hot dogs on a plate


* NB Note two differences between English and Portuguese with regard to word order:

1. In English, the adjective always comes before the noun - simple phrases (not 'phrases simple')

2. In English questions, the verb always comes before the subject. This is the reverse of the order in affirmative statements.

It is/ It's = statement                     Is it? = question

These simple sentences are right.  = statement

Are these simple sentences right? = question

Also note the difference between a 'phrase' and a sentence. A 'phrase' is a small group of words. A sentence can stand alone - it has a capital letter at the beginning and a full stop (period) at the end. You have written 10 simple sentences.

Hi João,

Well written though they are all short phrases. There is a difference between "onto" and "on". We say something is on (position) the table but we say we put something onto (direction of movement) the table. 

Hope this helps.

Cheers, 
Lance
