Dear MMC,
My
name is Graciette. I was named after my grandma. I don't have
any pets, but I would love to get a soft, brown, cuddly puppy.
I adore puppies. My favorite sport is volleyball. My favorite books are Great Expectations by Charles Dickens and The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe by C. S. Lewis.
My favorite subjects are reading, writing, and drawing. I adore them all
because they let you express your feelings. I adore planting flowers in
my little garden so that when people pass by they can see the wonderful
plants. I also love going to the beach because I can build sand castles
and go surfing.
I always help my mom clean the house, wash the dishes, mop, and
vacuum. When I grow up, I would like to become a lawyer and help
people if they have any problems.
Most of my family is from Mexico. I love visiting them because my
grandma has a store named "El Cinco De Mayo" and I get everything for
free. The rest of my family is in Honduras. I haven't visited them yet,
but it's okay because my grandma came to visit us last year.
Well,
I am happy to be a member of Mike's Math Club, and I hope the
Raiders win. GO RAIDERS!!
