Task 1:

Let's start by a trip report on Friday's field trip. Write one paragraph to describe Friday's field trip.

  We all classmates from the Linc class went to the Bluffs Park on last Friday. The park locals on the side of the Ontario Lake. It's very beautiful place and the weather was so good. 
  I enjoy the field trip because it is the first time I went to there and another very important reason is I enjoyed with my classmates all the games and foods, we all enjoyed the trip I think.
  I also took my son with me together, we walked on the path besides the lake, sat beside and lake, enjoyed all the view there, watched the birds and felt the wind. We were all very happy and enjoyed all of them. We also brought some foods there and enjoyed them together. The best thing was we played the soccer together, so much excited  and had fun there.
  I think it was a very success field trip. I really cannot find out any suggestion to improve the field trip in the future, we all enjoyed it every time. 
  Thank you Hala.
