US GEOGRAPHY AND NATIONAL PARKS

On 26th April Michael Soucie came to our school to teach us about America. He frist talked about Croatian American Society where he works. He told us about the programs we can join. They are also offering a two week trip to Florida this summer. He talked about where we would go and what we would do on this trip.

After that, he gave us a quiz in which we had to name 29 cities of America on a blind map. I was bad, but I still knew something.

After that Mr. Soucie talked about American national parks. Seven most visited parks are: Great Smoky Mountains, Grand Canyon, Zion, Yellowstone, Rocky Mountains, Yosemite and Acadia. He told us a lot about every single one and everyone really enjoyed it.

When he finished, he gave us another quiz – about national parks of course. The quiz was very hard, but also very fun. The winner of the quiz was Anamarija Čubrilo with 20 correct answers. She got a present and had a little speach about our school.

I really enjoyed the workshop and it was fun.

GEOGRAFIJA I NACIONALNI PARKOVI SAD-A

U petak 26. travnja Michael Soucie došao je u našu školu da nas poduči o Americi. Prvo je pričao o Hrvatsko-američkom društvu gdje on radi. Pričao je o raznim programima, gdje se možemo pridružiti. Nude i dvotjedni izlet u Floridu ovoga ljeta. Govorio nam je gdje bismo sve išli i što bismo sve raditli.

Nakon toga, dao nam je kviz da na slijepoj karti navedemo 29 gradova. Ja baš i nisam bila dobra, ali sam bar nešto znala.

Nakon toga, dospodin Soucie je pričao o nacionalnim parkovima u Americi. Naveo je sedam najposjećenijih parkova, a to su:  Great Smoky Mountains, Grand Canyon, Zion, Yellowstone, Rocky Mountains, Yosemite i Acadia. O svima nas je podučio.

Kad je završio, dao nam je veliki kviz. Kviz je, naravno, bio o nacionalnim parkovima o kojima je upravo pričao. Kviz je bio dosta težak, ali i zabavan. Na kraju pobjednica je bila Anamarija Čubrilo s 20 točnih odgovora. Dobila je i nagradu i čak je održala mali govor o našoj školi.

Jako sam uživala u radionici i bilo je jako zabavno.
