Last Meeting

Today is the last meeting of circle. We are going to go Hiroshima to ski in this spring vacation. I’m looking forward to visiting Hiroshima and skiing. This is the first time for me to visit Hiroshima.

After meeting, we moved to gym of Jousei junior high school and we played sports. The first, we played basketball. It was hard for me to play basketball because I don’t like to play basketball. So I didn’t play basketball so much but I watched it. To Watch basketball was more fun for me than to play it. After basketball, we played badminton. When I was a junior high school student, I belonged to badminton club. So I like to play badminton very much. But I have long time no play badminton, I couldn’t play badminton well. But I enjoyed playing badminton very much. In my circle, there are many people who belonged to badminton club so we organized badminton club in my circle. The name of this club is ERCB (Economic Research Club Badminton). We planned to play badminton again in this spring vacation. Finally, we played dodge ball.
I’ve also long time no play dodge ball. I don’t like to play dodge ball but today I could enjoy playing dodge ball! After sports, we took pictures.

After sports, we went to hot spring. Because it was very cold day, it was very comfortable for us. We stayed hot spring for about an hour and we moved Macdnald because we felt a little hungry. Then, we talked about various things. We stayed there for about two hours! After that, we went back.

I enjoyed the last circle activity very much!

1.2. Most Improved Essay

(See: Note 4, below.)


Selection and Assessment: Which of the three essays that you've written and revised this semester shows the most improvement? What did you do to improve it?

  • I think that essay 2-03b show the most improvement, because this essay is a few words in each paragraph.
