Chinese Students

A couple of weeks ago Chinese students came to our class. First we learnt how to write our name in Chinese and how to write their name. Secondly we showed them our Olympic person poster, then we showed them our blog and played games on the computer. They found the games difficult. Then we went outside together to eat lunch and then we played soccer and basketball. When lunch time was over we went into the hall and did Jump Jam. They were laughing. I think they enjoyed themselves. Mrs Larsen showed us a new website called Movie Maker. It is where you can put videos and photos, you can also write captions. This is mine.
