The Ups and Downs of Yo-yos By Wilson Pediet

THE UPS AND DOWNS OF YO-YOS

This unit brought me a lot of memories because yo-yos were my favorite play toy when I was a boy. This plaything brought me a lot of joy. I remember when I used to sit on the patio of my house and spend hours and hours playing with my yo-yo just by myself, those were my best time. 

This was one of my favorite lessons because I was learning about something that I always use it but I did not know of its origins. For me was very interesting to know about the origin of the yo-yo,  even though no one knows for sure when or where yo-yos originated, but according to the book, the best guess is that it was originated in China about 3,000 years ago. To know the history of yo-yos was one of the most amazing things that I have done in my life.

On the other hand, from this unit, I also learned a lot of new words that from now will help my English vocabulary. 

Here some of them;

1. Tycoon
2. Haul
3. Dandy
4. flee

I wish I could have any picture playing yo-yo but I don't have any.
