We had a field trip last Friday. We met at 10.15 a.m, at the level 1 Food Court of Fairview Mall for a treasure hunt. It was a snowy day. But we came on time.
This activity was organized by Arianne and Christiane. They gave us a handout about things to look for. We were divided into several groups. Two students of level 2 and my classmate Liji, my teacher's youngest son and I were a group. First we read the handout together and understood how we could complete the task quickly. "Let's go! it'll be fun." I said. We quickly went to the washroom near the Food Court and found the brand of the hand dryer. When we entered ithe washroom, many women gave us a strange look, they didn't know why we write down the brand of the hand dryer on our papers. We just gave them a smile. Then we went to The Bay and found a bottle of women's perfume:"made by Gucci", but we didn't see the price. "How can I help you?" said a pretty salesclerk as she walked toward us. "Yeah, could you tell me the price of this perfume?" I said. "Sure, it is $118 for 75ml" she said. "Thank you so much,"we said. "You're welcome,"she smiled.
We visited The Bay, HMV, Sport Check, Bikini Village, B 2, Silver City, Apple, etc ,about 20 stores in almost one and a half hours. We got a lot of fun. If we entered the store and didn't find something, we just asked the cashier of the store. They would tell us the price of the product from their computer right away.
I really thank the LINC school, which gave me opportunities to be a volunteer. It was an opportunity for me to exercise what I have studied at school in real daily life.

We followed level 6 teacher, Mr. Donald to go to CBC Tower. When we arrived, there were many people standing in line. I had been for an hour in line. This made me so tired. Finally, we entered the studio and listened to the concert.

Remembrance Day
Many Canadians wear the poppy to honour the memory of the Canadians who died in military service during World War 1, World War 2 and other wars.
During World War 1, many Canadians soldiers were buried in an area of France and Belgium known as Flanders. In 1915, John McCrae, a Canadian military doctor, noticed poppies growing in the cemetery field and wrote a poem called "In Flanders Fields."
In Flanders Fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row
After the poem became famous, the poppy was adopted as a symbol of remembrance. people vowed never to forget the horror of war and many Canadians wear the poppy before Remembrance Day.
Officials signed the peace treaty to end World War 1 in 1918, on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month. In 1931, the Canadian government declared November 11 Remembrance Day. After World War 2 ended in 1945, it became a memorial for those who died in both wars and all other wars that followed. At 11:00 a.m. On November 11, Canadians observe a moment of silence to remember those who died.
At the Peace Tower in Ottawa, every day is a day of remembrance. The Memorial Chamber has the book of Remembrance that contains the names of Canadian soldiers who gave their lives for their country.

UP time America by Dr.Kimberly Alyn's speech
phrasal verbs :
America listen up
If you see injustice, STAND UP
If something needs to be said, SPEAK UP
If you make an appointment, SHOW UP
If you make a mistake, FESS UP
If you’re overstepping, BACK UP
If you get behind, CATCH UP
If they knock you down, GET UP
If you’re out of line, STRAIGHTEN UP
When your boss instructs, KEEP UP
When your elders speak, LISTEN UP
When your teachers teach, SIT UP
When your preachers preach, WAKE UP
When your country calls, MAN UP
Ladies too... WOMAN UP
When the fight is over, MAKE UP
If you’re being hard, EASE UP
If your heart is closed, OPEN UP
If you want to buy something, SAVE UP--
It’s not an entitlement, so SHUT UP!
If you make a mess, CLEAN IT UP
If you drop trash, PICK IT UP
If a car is waiting for you to
walk across the street, SPEED IT UP
If you’re cold busted, GIVE IT UP
If people fall down, HELP THEM UP--
Not the government, YOU STEP UP
If idiots start fighting, BREAK IT UP
If the music is wholesome, TURN IT UP
If the message is poisonous, THROW IT UP
If your words are vulgar, CLAM IT UP
If your words encourage, KEEP IT UP
If your pants are baggy, PULL THEM UP
If the belt’s too loose, CINCH IT UP
If your fly is down, ZIP IT UP
If you’re dressed half naked, COVER IT UP
If you can’t afford stuff, PASS IT UP--
No “bailouts” folks, PONY UP
If you made a promise, you BACK IT UP
And you can take your whining and PACK IT UP
It’s called personal responsibility, so TAKE IT UP
This country was founded on it, you can LOOK IT UP
It’s the American way people, so TURN IT UP
Because when life gets boring, you SHAKE IT UP
When life is good, you SOAK IT UP
When life’s unfair, you SUCK IT UP
When life is funny, you can YUCK IT UP
When life is sad, just LOOK STRAIGHT UP
And life’s too short people, so LIVE IT UP!
