A Wonderful Day with my Avatar
Yesterday, I went cycling with my avatar, named Alley. He has human-like robotic hands, a pair of bat wings, two legs made of jelly and a cycling shirt and helmet. He has a silly-looking face too.
We first took the bus to a long cycling trail in Tuen Mun. When we arrived there, we immediately started cycling. While we were cycling, we saw lots of different things, like some beautiful roses, a clear and clean lake, and a huge and flat grassy field. After a while, we started to get tired, so we sat on the bicycle seat and ate our delicious lunch, which included two ham and cheese sandwiches. Then we continued our journey
During our cycling adventure, we rode across many sections which were very steep. It was very challenging. But we overcame it by cycling slowly and using our brakes every once in a while. We rode along the steep path, slowly but surely. After about another hour of cycling, we finally arrived at our destination -Yuen Long. We were thrilled at that time, so we celebrated and ate steak for dinner. At last, we all went back home and had a good rest. Our perseverance was rewarded.
That was an unforgettable experience! We rode lots of difficult sections in order to improve our cycling skills. Furthermore, we saw lots of beautiful scenery! Overall, it was a very fun and exciting experience. I realized that I can face challenges with great courage and perseverance. I hope that I can cycle more with Alley in the future.
Student's Reflection
I found it difficult to figure out what to do with my avatar when I first drafted the writing. So, I then tried to study the avatar designer in my Raz-kids account, and read one Raz-kids book named, ‘Our Camping Trip’. I got more inspiration after doing that. I am satisfied with my work.
