First day at the University of Saskatoon

 Day 4


  Today, we ate cereal for breakfast again in the morning.

    It was so tasty!


Then we went to the University of Saskatchewan for the first lesson. Besides Mr. McDonald, another teacher teaching us was called Mrs. Baudais. We learned phonics and made posters during the class.


   Mr. McDonald was telling us the class rules                  We had an unseen dictation on phonics.
   we needed to follow.


 

   We introduced ourselves to Mrs. Baudais.                    Then, we shared 5 facts about ourselves to             
                                                                                                  each other.

   Mr. McDonald shared some speaking skills with us.

                                      

                                              Mrs. Baudais told us a chapter of Harry Potter.


 

We were having a competition on phonics. We were asked to write as much as we could with the sound 'at' and 'am'. 
It was so exciting!

    

We were working hard on our posters. We still need to work on it tomorrow!



At lunch time, we ate noodles, fruit cups and apples prepared by our host family. Also, we drank some fruit juice. After the lesson, Mr. McDonald gave us a tour of the university. The University of Saskatchewan was really big and very different from the schools in Hong Kong.






 We were pretending to have a lesson, haha!



Mr. McDonald was telling us why there are always holes on the grass, can you guess why?
The answer is in the picture on the right! Search for it!


They were the holes for the 'goldvers' (marmot) !!



    For dinner, we had some very good fried rice.

Ninth school day + Hip Hop Dance

Image
Day 14 In the afternoon, we got the subway for lunch!!! It smelled so good!!!   After lunch, we counted the number of different families. Guess what  Daisy found 56  of them   Then, we watched the true story of 3 little pigs and we started to write the story in a different perspective. Three of us chose to write Little Red Riding Hood.  After that, we went to a hip-hop dance studio. Although it was hard, we tried our best. The most impressive part was that we all did it well because all of us had tried so hard instead of giving it up.   After that, we were worn out because dancing hip hop took a lot of energy. We went to bed for a nap. Then, we got spaghetti tonight. It tasted so good. After dinner, Carmen and Daisy went for a walk and I started thinking about the video project. When they arrived home, we chose the pictures we took in Canada and we decided to finish all of them by tomorrow. We went back to our room while Daisy and I were making the DIY pres...

Seventh school day + Cinema

Day 12 In the morning, we went to school as usual.                                  In the afternoon, we went to a cinema to watch the movie  "Indiana Jones".  It was really interesting because it was showing the past of Indiana Jones. He works as a college professor.  His class doesn’t like listening to him.He was old and was about to retire.After he left the college, a student of his followed him into a bar and stuck with him by pretending to be friendly and stole something from him.         For dinner, we ate two hotdogs  with ketchup and mustard.
