<h3>Another rainy day!</h3> <h3>Delicious take-away lunch prepared in the morning.</h3> <h3>Sharon's classes on cognitive and social constructivism this morning. She has a humorous ice-breaking and explains the complex theories vividly to make it easier for us to understand.</h3><h3><br /></h3> <h3>At noon we go to the lunch bar on the campus. The speaker is a lecturer from Oxford University. It is held by Christian Union with free lunch. The topic is "Has science trumped God?" Although I am a little confused about its content, it's really a good chance to practice my listening and know something about the campus culture and Christ.</h3><h3><br /></h3> <h3>It's amazing to know that there are 3 museums on the campus. So before our group have a meeting with the teacher from the Oakbank School at 4:30---our school for placement, we four go to explore the Museum of English Rural Life on another campus of University of Reading. </h3> <h3>The museum is a two-storey building with many items about English rural life. I learn a lot about their working tools, wagons, art works full of wisdom and the development of the villages. </h3> <h3>The girl is the volunteer in the museum. She guides us to know more about the culture patiently.</h3> <h3>Many English people grow up with the series of the ladybird books. It has an enormous impact on their childhood and brings them good memories of their childhood. </h3> <h3>At dinner, we take part in the activity in the International Cafe. It's a fantatic experience for me and a good opportunity to meet and mingle with international students. It's a little bit like English corner but there are some performances and desserts. We can talk with students from different countries.</h3><h3><br /></h3> <h3>We are lucky to be here when the annual Events Week takes place in the University of Reading</h3> <h3>Rich and colorful campus life</h3> <h3>We rehearse at 7:00 and make preparations for Friday's performance.</h3>
