Feel free to wear a mask if you want to.
When do you wear a mark?
-in hospital,
-on the bus and skytrain
-shopping mall
-in supermarket
-big meeting
-party, social gathering
-school
problem with masks – can’t see our faces,
lose a lot of non-verbal communication- facial expressions, lip reading
This is the reason that talking on the
telephone is not easy.
Sometimes we can get a rash on our face
from wearing a mark.
rash- irritated red skin
Babies get rashes from diapers.
Regularly spray your hands with the spray
bottle.
Spray and wipe your desk.
Our skin gets dry. We have to use
moisturizer.
Our closest door for coming in and out of
the school is the south door.
The four directions: NORTH EAST SOUTH WEST
In Vancouver, the mountains are north.
The Northshore Mountains- Mount Seymour,
Grouse Mountain, Cypress Mountain
Grouse Mountain has the gondola. You can go
sightseeing. Also, you can skiing, snowboarding, and tubing. You can also go cross-country
skiing or snowshoeing. Snowshoeing is like hiking on the snow.
Hiking is walking up a mountain.
There is a lot to do in nature in BC. Go
out and enjoy nature.
In the wintertime, you can ski, snowboard,
