Mead High School Is Great!

I got up early at 6:00 am because we were going to Mead high school. The high school was very beautiful. We took a class with high school students. I was surprised when the group discussion was very vigorous. They had different opinions and ideas and I was surprised to find that they were full of confidence. They were positive and friendly. It was fun! American classes are different from Japan. They had announcements anytime, including during class today. They listened carefully, and their teacher asked them questions about the announcements.

Japanese students should be more positive and give your opinions. We shouldn't be afraid of making mistakes! This was the first time I had had an experience like this. I think that today was a very important today. I'll try to speak English and I want to give my opinion about things.

At Mead high school, there were 6 people in my group. I became friendly with one of the girls who is 16 years old. A very young girl! She is very kind. We talked about Japan. I was glad. I also received a cookie from her. It was a surprise. It was very delicious, so I would like to make a cookie for her. I want to see her again. I took a picture with her when I was leaving to go back to school. I think that I was able to experience the different culture in the U.S at Mead high school today.

The student made my day!!
