Thursday's assignment

Good morning everyone,

Hope that all who attended yesterday have enjoyed the day and learnt something new.
Let’s start with our famous trip report writing activity.
Write a report describing yesterday’s experience for you.
  • What did you learn that was new to you?  Yesterday, we had a good field trip to Toronto's University. I learned that there is a stream across this school before European settlers arrived. During the spring, the stream that once ran through this site would have been teeming with wildlife and native fishermen would have lined the banks with gill nets and fish weirs to partake of this bounty. For them,the stream would have been a sacred site - a place of powerful and audible spirits.
  • What impressed you the most?  The student's Restaurant is impressed me the most. Because it is  very special and quite.  It looks very beautiful, a little bit dark, classical ,decorated with   many famous person's portraiture. I would like to enjoy food there.
  • What was something somehow similar to your home country?
  • I think all famous university is old which have many big trees and classical old building.
  • Was there anything that you felt uncomfortable with? If yes, what is it? And why?
  • I think some narrow room there made me feel a few uncomfortable.Because they are too small and narrow to make me feel unbreathable.

  • yes
  • Do you have any other suggestions to different venues/field trips/ locations?
  • I would like to go to cinema for watching movie, haha:)
