Letter
Dear
Pen Pal,
My name is
Friendly Fred. I
am a sixth grade student at Central Park Middle School.
I am 4’11”, but I am still growing.
I have brown hair, brown eyes, and I like to wear
jeans and sneakers to school.
What do you wear to school?
Do you have a school uniform?
We don’t, but everybody wears the same kind of
cloths anyway.
I have an older brother and a younger sister.
My brother is 19 and goes to college.
He wants to be a computer program writer.
He likes computer games and wants to make up his own.
Do you like computer games?
What is your favorite?
My sister is only 8.
She doesn’t know what she wants to be when she
grows up. My
mother is a secretary for a grocery store and my father is a
high school science teacher.
What is your family like?
Do you have any brothers and sisters?
What does your father do?
Does your mother have a job?
We all have jobs around the house.
I have to help with the dishes, keep my room clean,
and Mom is teaching me how to do my own laundry. She says
boys need to know how to take care of themselves for when
they grow up and live on their own. I get an allowance, but
I’m going to have a newspaper route when I get older so I
can earn more money. What
do you have to do to help out around your house?
Do you get an allowance?
What are you going to do to earn money when you get a
little older?
I hope you write back.
I would like a pen pal from Africa.
I would like to know all about Africa.
Have you ever seen a lion that wasn’t in a zoo?
Sincerely,
Friendly
Fred
