Once in a land not too far away (but in order to show the
differences between the main characters I have to say far), a 12 year old named
Miguel has just moved from Mexico to Canada.
Miguel was feeling very nervous because he didn’t speak a word of
English. One day, when he was eating his
burrito peacefully, Arnold (An America) came and threw Miguel’s burrito on the
ground. Miguel stared as what was left
of his burrito when one of the Canadians came to help.
“Are you
okay?” Oh no! Your burrito!
Here, let me help! I am Carol by the way.”
The next day,
Carol tried his best to be friends with Miguel.
“Hi! Do you want to hang out
after school today? Oh! Am I bothering you? Okay… sorry…. Well, see you!”
It clearly had not worked out. Miguel was feeling sadder and sadder by each
passing day. He was always being bullied
by Arnold. Arnold kept asking, “Where is
your sombrero? I own you!”
What Arnold
didn’t realize is that Carol had heard everything that he had said to
Miguel. So, Carol organized the next day
that half the school would wear a sombrero and eat either a taco or a burrito. That is what happened to make Arnold realize
his mistakes and he eventually surrendered.
Now, because of that, Miguel and Carol are best friends. Even though they don’t speak the same
language.
Yes because we don't eat burritos everyday and we don't wear sombreros everyday. :D ;)
ReplyDeleteYour story was cool because it seems that Canadian people are friendly and helpful.
Have a nice trip we're waiting for you to come.
Third grade (Nicole, Michel, Diego, Anahy, Maggie, Dilan, Joshua and Miss Cynthia).
PERFECT STORY!!! I loved it. The beginning was hilarious and I laughed a lot (mainly because I'm in a good mood) and I think you didn't stereotyped too much. It's true that we don't eat burritos all the time (we like more tacos, enchiladas, mole, etc.) and we don't dress in our typical clothes anymore. But I think you showed a Great point of view regarding our old traditions and showing that if we work together, we can make great things.
