Day 9

School day + Sports day (Canadian football)



Today was the 9th day of the trip. In the morning, we played Canadian football, as the afternoon was too hot. We first learned the rules of Canadian football. It was not too hard to understand. The field is 110 yards long with 2 end zones. We need to catch the ball and run to the end zone to score.




After arriving at the field, Mr. McDonald taught us how to throw and pass the ball. The ball was so hard that it made our fingers feel very painful when we caught it. Before we started the competition, Ms. Janet brought some popsicles for us, which helped us cool down.



For the competition, there were two teams: the Yellow Birds and GC. In the first round, the Yellow Birds scored. But in the second and third rounds, GC scored. Finally, we shook hands to represent our friendship. It was really interesting.












In the afternoon, we had our regular class. We learned how to create a story. After school, we went to Superstore to buy our dinner, and then to Marshalls, where we found cheap jewelry and makeup, which surprised us a lot.


 

For dinner, we had pork chops, cabbage salad, and pasta. The pork chops were so thick that we were all very full. The dinner was yummy, and we were satisfied with it.








That's all for our day.
