Dear Mrs. Huffman,
My name is Rachel. I sit at group seven. I have blond hair and I am short. I went to my friends house and heres what happened!
I went to my friends house and spent the night. We went to bed and when we got up we went down stairs and played the Oregon trail. Then her mom made pancakes. After we ate we were sitting in the chair and she had slippers on and I took one and put it on both of my feet. We were making chocolate chip cookies and the timer went off. Then we got up and hopped over to take them out of the oven and put more in. Then when we were done making the cookies we were hopping up the stairs and she fell and it was really FUNNY.
Sincerely,
Rachel
What My Dog Likes
Winter, 1999
Hi my name is Rachel and I'm going to tell you a little bit about my dog Harly. So stuff I will tell you about is what he likes. He likes to run, jump, spring, play, ruffhouse. The thing that he likes the most . . . is well you'll find out later in the story.
My dog Harley was born about October 25, 1998, so he is about 4 months old. Harly is a black dog. He is half Skipperkey, and half Jack Russell. The things that he likes to do best is play with people and his toys. He has three toy balls. Harly has a Basket ball which he likes the best a soccer ball and a ball with like little nubs poking out all over. Harly's favorite thing to do is to go out side to play with my other dog Venus. Harly always chases and bugs Venus. Venus always gets annoyed by Harly.
So that is the story about my dog Harly. There is lots more I could say but the story has to end. I hoped you liked my story. Harly is an exciting and fun dog to have.
The End
