Dear Danny,
This week in class, we talked about success. We studied famous people and talked about our favourite heroes.
Earlyier this year, I had told Ms Liu that I would like to help her teach our English class. On Monday, she asked me to make an example of a crossword puzzle. I thought it would be fun since I had done a lot of crossword puzzles when I was in Canada.
But whom would my puzzle be about? Day after day,I asked myself that question. I thought about it as I walked to school. I thought about it later as I walked home.
Then I had a great idea. My puzzle wouldn’t be about somebody famous.But it would be about someday who wants to be famous.
I’m sending you the puzzle so you can try to guess who it is.
Li MingTuesday,November 12
Hi,Li Ming,
I loved your puzzle!You chose a very good hero.I hope he will be famous someday!
I showed the puzzle toJenny and Brian as we ate our lunch today. I tole them that the puzzle was about a very great person. I said that this person was born in the same year as they were.
They couldn’t guess, so I helped them. I said that the person’s favourite food was a donut. Five minutes later, they had finished the whole puzzle. I told them that you had made it for me.
Thanks, Li Ming.Your puzzle was fun!
