Letter to Mrs. Green

Dear Mrs. Green,

My family and I just got back from vacation at Point Clear, Alabama. We did a lot of water activities like water fights, kayaking, and riding water slides. We had a lot of fun at the bay and the pool.

Every day we would go see a cannon being fired to honor the veterans and the active soldiers. It made a loud noise, but there was no projectile. At the cannon firing, I learned that the hotel we were in was an old hospital. That means lots of people died there which could explain the ghost in the picture my cousin found in the lobby.

How was your vacation? Did you have fun?

Pollution Around Al Ain

Pollution like this bottle is bad for the environment and animals. People should stop littering. If animals eat litter they well die like in Happy Feet.

We saw lots of litter in the desert. People drink the water and throw the bottles on the ground.

People throw bags and the wind blows the bags to the trees.

The factory is making air pollution and it is bad for the environment.
