 * The day that very brave girl named Yu Guan Soon is very important because she worked really hard on interviewing to other people in our country that we did very for our country to improve while Japanese were trying to take over our country along time ago. ** ||


 * Today in grade 3, most of the moms came to grade 3 because we had a delicious potluck breakfast. I thought it was a big and a special experience and it was a good chance to socialize with other friends in grade 3. I thought it was a good chance to learn other people’s country and culture. **


 * In the potluck breakfast, a dish that was sweet was called the “Churros”. That food was from Spain. I kind of liked that dish and also this dish was something that I never tried before. The food that was spicy was called the “Tandoori chicken”. That dish was from India, and it was kind of spicy. The dish that was vegetarian dish was Japanese “Sushi”. It is a very nice food because Sushi is a very healthy food. The Japanese Sushis are different to Korean Sushis, (which I came from) so when I ate it, it was so yummy! Now I think I like Japanese Sushi more than Korean Sushi. My favorite dish in 3rd grade potluck was Japanese Sushi. Also Sushi is a food that can be made in another continent like Korea. I think the international breakfast was a very nice breakfast to learn about the other counties' culture. I had a very big experience. **

that was a good paragraph with awesome words!
