Teacher: Megan

My favorite season is winter because when it is coming I imagine making snowmen and having a snowball fight with my family and best friends. When winter comes, people want to wear two pairs of underwear because the weather is cold, but there is a problem: people don't want to go out and will be lazy. The students like winter because of winter vacation. December 25th is Christmas Day, so we get presents and snacks and talk to family and friends. We call our friends and play at the park (Thang Thang Park).

When vacation is almost finished we might be sad and annoyed because we have a lot of vacation homework that we forgot about. We only played and went to academy, so now we have a lot of work to do. Although, I like to go to school too. I like to see my friends and the teacher. I like to see the teacher more than being on vacation. In winter, some people eat ice cream, but it is cold, so I don’t like to eat ice cream in winter. What about you? I like to have warm drinks so much. Maybe many people like warm things in winter like me. Careful! If you eat too much ice cream in winter you will get a cold. If you get a cold, the winter vacation will be boring because you'll have to stay in bed. Please don’t eat too much ice cream. Please eat a balanced diet, then you will have a healthy and exciting vacation.
