Giving account of visits to places of interest

When we visit a place of interest like a local market, a supermarket, or a natural site like Idanre Hills, we can give an account of our experience to others by sharing what we saw, heard, and felt.

Let’s take a closer look at each of these places and see how we might give an account of our visit.

Local Market like Sandgross Market: When we visit a local market like Sandgross Market, we might notice all the different types of foods and products that are being sold. We might see colorful fruits and vegetables, freshly baked bread, and handcrafted items like jewelry and clothing. We might hear the sounds of people bargaining and chatting with one another. We might feel the hustle and bustle of the market, with vendors calling out to customers and shoppers walking past us. When we give an account of our visit to Sandgross Market, we can talk about what we saw, heard, and felt.

Supermarket like Shoprite: When we visit a supermarket like Shoprite, we might notice how different it is from a local market. We might see shelves and aisles filled with packaged foods, cleaning supplies, and household items. We might hear the sounds of carts rolling on the floor and the beeps of the checkout machines. We might feel the cool air conditioning and the smooth floors under our feet. When we give an account of our visit to Shoprite, we can talk about what we saw, heard, and felt.

Natural site like Idanre Hills: When we visit a natural site like Idanre Hills, we might notice the natural beauty around us. We might see tall trees, flowing streams, and majestic hills. We might hear the sounds of birds chirping and the wind rustling through the leaves. We might feel the sun on our faces and the soft grass under our feet. When we give an account of our visit to Idanre Hills, we can talk about what we saw, heard, and felt.

Please note that, when we give an account of our visits to places of interest, we share our experiences by talking about what we saw, heard, and felt. Whether it’s a local market, a supermarket, or a natural site like Idanre Hills, we can use our senses to describe our experience to others.
