Imagined diary entry: Today our group explored Ottawa with an adult guide. We met outside a museum at nine and visited a history display at ten. I enjoyed seeing everyday objects from the past because they helped me imagine other people’s lives. At noon we ate lunch and discussed our favourite exhibits. Then we returned to our meeting point. This is a classroom account of an imagined tour, not a real travel report.
