Letter 3

Dear Tim,
   After reading the news letter this week, I understood more about the event happened on September 11th. What I knew about it before was a plane crashed into the World Trade Center, but now I know that there were four planes crashing into other buildings. This event happened after I was born, but I was too small then so I didn't know what had happened. After many years, at school the teachers showed us the videos about this event. I realized that even a strong country can easily be destroyed. Taiwan is a tiny country and we are in danger every day so we should always be careful.
   I love flowers because they make the world colorful even in a corner. But I am also scared of flowers, because one time my mom bought some flowers from the mountains, and a bee hid in the flowers. The bee came out after we arrived home and I couldn't imagine that I had been so close to a bee for a long time. The bee terrified me so I always be really careful when I am close to flowers after that day. The flowers you mentioned in the letter grow wild in places that are not too hot and also has more rain. Just like me! I don't like hot weather and sometimes I really like rainy days. The flowers grow beautifully because they get some shadows and enough rain.
   I learned a lot of new things in this week's newsletter. I can't wait for next
week!

Dear Sherry,
This might be your best letter yet! You give lots of details that show me that you actually read and understood the material, plus you add soon personal experiences and observations. Good job!
You may not like our flowers in the back yard at the moment. In addition to the hummingbirds and the butterflies, there are also a lot of bees. We've learned that if you don't bother the bees, they won't bother you.

Tim
