*Jack,+Lewis,+Hayden,+Hunter



Dear friends, During the summer I went to a coal mine. A coal mine is where we get electricity. I got to use something I like to call TNT. I pressed a single button. All of a sudden BOOM! Dust and dirt flew everywhere. After that I got to see the fifth biggest loader in the world. A loader is like a snowplow. It has a big bucket so it can lift lots of dirt to clear the area because they can't find coal to power the city. I used the TNT because my Uncle Billy works at the coal mine. He invited me to use the TNT. What have you done lately? Your friend in the USA, Jack

Dear friends, Thank you for your letter. I live in Zambia. I am Scottish. I like to play with my brother his name is Nathan. Nathan and I like to jump on the trampoline. We also like to play on our climbing frame in my backyard. Sometimes I like to eat Nshima. My nanny makes it for us. I like it with Kapenta. Nshima is like white fluffy potatoes and Kapenta is small fish. What do you like to eat? Your friend in Zambia, Lewis

﻿Dear friends, I celebrate Christmas by hanging out with my family. The best part of Christmas is I get double the presents because when my family is here they buy my toys early. But that is not the best part of Christmas. The best part of Christmas is my brother comes over. He would make you laugh so hard you would cry. How do you celebrate Christmas? Your friend in the USA, Jack

Dear friends, We have not talked in awhile. I hope you will write some letters. I guess there are questions to answer. Oh, yeah, Craig has had lots of snow coverage.
