I was invited to go on a home visit with one of my students this weekend. I had a wonderful time!
This is Cedric. He is in one of my 4th grade classes. He and his family invited me to their home.
First, we went to dinner. We had so much food! We ate famous Beijing Roasted Duck.
After dinner, we went for dessert. Cedric is on the right, his brother, Larry, is on the left, and their mother is in the middle.
We also went to a fruit market. They had many fruits that I have never seen before there!
This fruit is called a Chinese Dragon Fruit, and it is delicious!
The next day, we had lunch at Cedric's aunt's house. She cooked a lot of food!
After lunch, we went shopping! The family bought me some tea, a scarf, and a Chinese fan.
The family also asked me to dress up in some traditional Chinese clothes. That head dress was very heavy! I attracted a large crowd while wearing this. There were so many people taking my picture!
Here is a picture of the family all together.
After shopping, we went to the West Lake. It is a famous attraction in Hangzhou. This is Larry standing by the lake.
It was a lot of fun to spend a day with a Chinese family. The Chinese people are so friendly and generous. I'm glad to call them my new friends!
Love,
Mrs. Heflin
