Some time during the school year my teacher, Mr. Cook announced that we would be doing a very important project on one of the five ancient countries we studied about. And, it was only a few days ago that it really happened. It was called Market Day.
Market Day was a day when all of the sixth graders got together and everybody chose a country and a job. People were chandlers, potters, fisherman, and glassblowers from all countries.
I, myself, was a Chinese good luck fortune shop owner. First I brought goldfish and crickets which were the most popular things in Market Day. I also brought good luck knots that I had made, and told fortunes.
The fortunes didn’t really make it through but the knots were second choice. Surprisingly, I was even written about in the Davis Enterprise.
Market Day ended with success, as I had gotten many items in trade. At the end of Market Day I lugged my wagon full of stuff (the wagon I used to bring things to Market Day) all the way back to school.
