Dear Jenny,
Today is March 1. Spring has arrived in Shijiazhuang.The temperature was 10℃ this morning. This afternoon, it reached 15℃. It was quite warm and the air was fresh. I need neither my heavy winter coat normy boots now!
On my way to school this morning, I saw some winter jasmine blossoming. Here, people believe the blossom of this flower always tells the coming of spring, so we call winter jasmine “the welcoming-spring flower”.
The days are getting longer and the sun rises earlier in the morning. The warm sunshine feels good after the cold winter days. Every morning, I see lots of people exercising in the park. Some practice Tai Chi. Others sing and dance. Children run around or play on the swings.
We will have a school basketball game next week. My class is also planning a field trip to the countryside. We will plant trees, enjoy the beautiful flowers and play games. Wow! I can't wait.
What's the weather like in Canada? What do you like to do in spring?
