Meet Lassie the Turtle

Dear Sasha,

I see you have been a good girl this year! Your Mommy and Daddy told me all about your adventures in Canada and Taiwan. I know you like to learn and explore the world of animals and insects. Please be kind to all living creatures. I am going to give you a big responsibility: I want you to take care of my pet turtle.

Remember to feed her, play with her and keep her clean. It is a big job and I know you can do it. Please choose a good name for her.

Be a good listener and a good friend at home and at school. Remember to always smile for Daddy's pictures and laugh at Mommy's funny jokes!

Ho Ho Ho,
Santa Claus

The Very Hungry Caterpillar

I carried a caterpillar to my school. Then I put it on the leaf. Then I bring it home to show the boys and girls. Then I play with it in my paper. Then Mommy put it out in the yogurt cup. I show the boys and girls again. Then Mommy put it outside in the big flowerpot. Then it crawl in the flowerpot.

Sasha and the Snail

I found a snail near my school. It got stripes like a zebra and a cheetah and a tiger. And it's different like other snails. And I keep it in my home couple days. Then the snail crawled out and Daddy saw the snail. Then we watch it. And Mommy poke it with a pen. Then the snail go back in its shell. Then the snail go down the yogurt cup. Then the snail are frightened. Then we put to another place.

A Letter from Santa Claus

I got a letter from Santa. I'm happy and excited to get the letter from Santa. I'm happy to get the gift from Santa. I remember I got the recorder and the string puppet when I was 5 years old (last year). And I danced with Santa in my big school last year.

Thank you, Santa!

A Little Grasshopper

Today I saw a grasshopper. And the grasshopper will run away off my hands. Then I put the grasshopper into a yogurt cup, then I covered it with a tissue and let a hole out.

Then I bring the grasshopper into the car. Then the grasshopper jumped around the car! Then Daddy drive.

Then I bring the grasshopper home. And the grasshopper jumped around the yogurt cup again. Then I put a grape skin into the yogurt cup.

Tomorrow I will put the grasshopper into my school for Show and Tell for my friends to see. And touch. Then I'll put back the grasshopper.
