Maggie’s letter.
Dear Emma
It is summer now.
I am so happy.
We have summer vacation
and I don’t have to go to school.
My family is at
my grandfather’s house.
He lives at the beach.
We wear our bathing suits
every day.
We go to the beach
to swim in the sea.
Mike can swim very well.
Tammy and I always
build sandcastles
on the beach.
We eat ice cream
because the sun is very hot.
My grandfather
and my father
like to catch fish.
My grandmother
sits under an umbrella.
She likes to read.
Sometimes we have
a barbecue
in the evening.
Then we walk
on the beach.
I can see
the moon and the stars.
They are so beautiful.
Please write and tell me
what you are doing.
Your friend
Maggie.
