Traveling to Taiwan
by Emily
What I know about
Taiwan
is that it is a beautiful place. I would like to have time there so I can teach
my email pals English, maybe something about the bugs we learned about, or maybe
we can go and fly kites. We can if we work together and make a kite.
And I would like to bring a gift! I would like to have tea in a park.
I’d love to try new foods. Taiwan
is located in
Asia
. It may not look like that but it is. When I sit at a table before I eat I pray
and I always chew with my mouth closed. I say please and thank you.
I try to finish my food if I can. If I need to go and use the restroom I
ask be excused. If someone is already using it, I wait quietly. If not I knock
on the door. What would be exciting about this trip is that it’s a great
opportunity, a once in a lifetime. If I got to stay at my email pal’s home I
would be very surprised and excited. I will try to pick up my food with
chopsticks and try it. I think it is very important to try new things in order
to have good health. I have been away from my family for two weeks and I know I
can make it a few more days in
Taiwan. I am willing to learn more Chinese. I already know a whole lot of Chinese. I
can write the numbers 1-10 in Chinese! This trip is an important part of my
education because knowing more about the world helps you be smart.
Traveling to Taiwan
by Kylie
I think that I would be a very good traveler because I know
lots of things about
Taiwan
like the capital is
Taipei
. And plus they have fun water parks and beaches that I would enjoy. I even know
where it is located. It is located right next to
China
and it is in Asia and I know that it is by the
Pacific Ocean
. I might be nervous to stay at my
pen pal’s house but I still want to go and learn the traditions. I have very
good manners so I can represent
Hannibal
with respect. I will tell you what good table manners are: don’t burp at the
table, don’t talk with your mouth full, and don’t put your elbows on the
table. I would try my best to use chopsticks and try the new strange foods on my
plate because it is important to try new foods. I know I can be away from my
family for this time and I am willing to learn lots of Chinese phrases. I will
tell you my numbers in Chinese to ten- yee, ar, sahn, suh, woo, leo, chee,
bah, geo and shuh. This is an important fun trip.
My Thoughts on
Travels to Taiwan
by Bianca
I think I would be a great traveler to
Taiwan
because I know how to speak some Chinese. I know that
Taiwan
has different kinds of food,
Taiwan
has the tallest building in the world,
Taiwan
has Dragon boat races, and it has a big city called
Taipei
. I would like to learn more Chinese.
Taiwan
is located in Asia and it is by the
East China Sea
. I would like to play and stay with my Chinese family and I would like to use
my chopsticks too. I would have good manners, I would play with my e-mail pals
Lily and Kelly, and I would use my best Chinese. For manners I would say xie
xie and if I burp I will say dui bu qi. I would try new foods even if
I don’t know what they are because the food might be good. I am brave enough
to be away from my family for seventeen days. I already know this in Chinese: dui bu qi, xie xie, zei
jian, dung shi xiao kien, wo yow hambow, wo xing Dorsey, Jao Bianca.
Going to
Taiwan
is good for my education because I would learn so much from my friends.
Traveling to Taiwan
by Casey
I am a good traveler because I don’t complain. I know that Kang Chiao
has a lot of fun things to do. And I know that there are dragon boat races in
Taiwan
and I would like to see one. I would be a very good person because I know what
good table manners are: say excuse me, and please for someone to pass the food,
talk about appropriate things, don’t shove your mouth full of food, and do not
have a challenge with your food. For speaking Chinese, I already know Wo
yao
hambow means I would like a hamburger and I can count to ten.
My Thoughts on Taiwan
by Austin N.
I think I would be a good traveler because I can be away
from home and I have been away before. I can learn Chinese.
I am not shy. I would like to meet my pen pal and be able to stay with my
pen pals. I would try new food. I know where
Taiwan
is located it is off the coast of
Asia
. I know the capital of
Taiwan
is
Taipei
. I have been away from my family for 17 days before so I know I can do it. I
would always try the new foods and have good manners and use my chopsticks. I
know how to say dui bu qi I want to say excuse me. I would wait until
everybody else starts eating before I start eating. It would be a very exciting
trip to fly all the way to
Asia
.
My Thoughts on
Traveling to Taiwan
by Chris
I think I should go to
Taiwan
because I would like to meet my pen pal and stay with them. I would like to
show my pen pal where we are located and tell him about us in the
United States
. I will show that I have good
manners including waiting for all people to be served, saying please and thank
you, and saying dui bu qi.
I would also like to try new foods in
Taiwan
and learn the right way to use chopsticks from my pen pal.
I also want to see
Taipei
101 and go inside and see what it is like in there. I would also like to see
the
Pacific Ocean
and swim in it because I have never been to the ocean before.
Going to
Taiwan
by Austin F.
I am a good traveler because I like to go places. I like to
eat new foods and I like to travel a lot around the states and countries. And I
like zoos and there is a zoo in
Taiwan
. I have already traveled twice to
Colorado,
Oregon, and
California
.
I know the capital of
Taiwan
is
Taipei
and
Taiwan
is in the
Pacific Ocean
. If I get to go I really want to see the dragon boat races.
I would like to stay at Peter and Brian’s house for two weeks. I would
be very good and a good friend. I would like to try drawing a Chinese opera mask and learn some more Chinese.
Some of the Chinese I know is Wo xing means my last name is. Jao
means I am called. I would say Wo xing Fugate, jao
Austin. I know numbers yee, ar, sahn, suh, woo. Qing wen nin gui
xing means What’s your name please?
Travels to
Taiwan
by Alex
I would like to go to
Taiwan
because it is a once in a lifetime chance. I know that
Taiwan
has a lot of color at night. I would like to go and visit my e-mail pal and get
to know them all better. I can tell you that
Taiwan
is located in Asia and
Asia
is the largest continent. I would
be very excited to go because you might never get a chance to do it again.
I will show my good table manners and say thank you and not burp and be polite.
I would just try any food I get and not say anything and just keep eating it. I
would let the people I am staying with go first to eat then I will eat. It is
important to try new foods because you will never know how it tasted if you
don’t try. I know I can be okay away from my family for this trip because it
will be so fun. I will work hard to learn Chinese phrases before I go on the
trip with Mr. Smith. I will take pictures of
Taiwan
and maybe get a gift for my family and bring a gift for my
Taiwan
family. I want to have a good time and bond with my
Taiwan
family.
My Thoughts on
Traveling to
Taiwan
by Jeff
I like
Taiwan
! It would be fun flying in an airplane to go there. I have never been on an
airplane in my life. It will take a long long time. I would like to go swimming
when I get there. I know it is hot. I hope we get to go to the water park and
the beach! In
Taiwan
I think you have to boil your water before you drink it. I like basketball and
I want to play basketball up on the roof at their school. I want to meet Chi Chi
and Jeffery my email pals. I will be polite at the table and use my good manners all the time. It will be
sweet to go to Taiwan. Plus I really like Taiwan
!
Going to
Taiwan
by Gabby
If I get to go to Taiwan
and stay at a person’s house I would act like a good friend, respectful, and
being nice. I have good table manners at any meal. Manners are being polite like
thank you and no thank you, and just tasting any foods even if it doesn’t look
good. I won’t say bad things about the food, and I will use my chopsticks. I
really think it is good to try new things because you don’t know if it is good
or not. I would be brave to be away from my family because I would still feel
safe.
In
Taiwan
I would like to go swimming and go see the country. Things that would make me
excited is learning about
Taiwan
, learning some of their ways, and how to say more of their words and stuff like
that. What I know so far in Chinese
is numbers, introducing myself, and what’s your name please.
I also want to see the school and learn how they teach kids in Taiwan
.
