北加州Portola Valley邀請我和他們六年級的學生講課。那群11-12 歲的六年級學生很可愛，充滿自信與熱情。他們一點兒也不害羞。每次我問問題，大家都搶著回答。他們也有發問很好的問題呢。
我與他們分享我的故事：十幾歲時如何逃離南越，去了法國，然後又來來到美國。
他們很專心聆聽，時而舉手發問。
我們也一起朗讀《孤獨的美國人》第15章，貝多芬，巴赫和炸彈的摘錄。五個學生都朗讀的很棒！
我們一起渡過一節很有意義的課。
Woodland School in Portola Valley (Northern California) invited me to talk to the 6th graders in a literature class. I really enjoyed the interaction with the students. They were confident, enthusiastic and they asked very good questions.
I shared with them my story: how I left Vietnam as a teenager, went to France, and then came to America.
We also read an excerpt from The Lonely American, Chapter 15, Beethoven, Bach and Bombs. Several of them volunteered to read the excerpt, and we got to do a bit of dramatic reading.
It was fun and very meaningful to me. They were really a bunch of wonderful 6th graders!
