vi) Compete textbook exercises on pages 113, 115, and 117.
vii) Complete translation exercise on page 118.2) Examine the Hidden Picture: “The Bagel, Pretzel Bakery” Identify and color or shade in the 20 objects imbedded in the image. Write the list of items that you identified. Bring your Hidden Picture and list to class on 2007/10/27. The skill we are developing here is recalling vocabulary strictly by images without verbal or written cues and comparing different names for similar objects, ie. “mug” vs. “cup” or “ladle vs. “big spoon”.

2008年 Prince George 親子旅遊計劃

2008年 Prince George 親子旅遊
遠離大都會塵囂,接近大自然,讓你擁有一個最美的旅遊
加拿大BC省北部省會的喬治王子市(Prince George), 那是一個充滿人情味及秀麗風光的城市,由於只有少數的中國人,台灣人更少,你能體會的是100%加拿大的生活方式,享受洛磯山的”美”,國家公園的”濶”,野生動物的”真”,絶非居住眾多華人的溫哥華所能比擬。

從溫哥華到Prince George的國內航線,你可以看到洛磯山終年不化的冰山景觀。Prince George有一個特殊之處,在天氣晴朗無雲的日子,有時候你可以看到北極光在夜空中飛舞,一明一暗的很是壯觀。

安排學員到當地的UNBC大學、College of New Caledonia學院、Canadian College of Oriental Medicine漢醫學院與BC省第五十七學區教育局轄下中小學參觀,讓學員了解加拿大的學制與生活,給有興趣移民或投資加拿大的學員或是未來想留學加拿大的學員參考。

當地的博物館擁有百萬年前的恐龍化石,讓你搜索恐龍的秘密檔案。巴克維爾(Barkerville) 淘金之旅,你可以洗砂金,體驗早期中國人到加拿大的奮鬥情懷。在美麗的室內溫水游泳池游泳,享受特殊的人工造浪及室內運動器材,挑戰你的體能。附近寧靜的公園能讓你感受到人類與大自然是如此的親近。

由加拿大籍Richard & Grace老師親自帶領所有的學員到他們的原居地Prince George市,享受加拿大輕鬆生活、語言與風俗習慣,絶對是英語進步、建立國際觀的最佳的方式。
