Dear Myrtle,

I really wish that I was at school. Being home is incredibly boring, For example I just can’t entertain myself, because there are no friends that I can hang out with. Normally we would be sitting around at Jaes house, playing dungeons and dragons, but we now have to play through google hangout, which is really the only thing I look forward to on this whole break. I am also looking forward to my birthday in two weeks, where we will do a dance party followed by binge watching my favorite anime until late at night. Until then I will be bored out of my skull.
Sincerely, your owner,
Solomon, who took you on a walk a few days ago.

WOW. This is incredibly overwhelming. I honestly do not like school at home, I do not think I am learning much, and here are my reasons why. Reason one: we are not learning new things, just things we already know, because there is no one to teach us new things. For example in the math packet, we are working on fractions, which we already know, and in math at school, we would be learning more advanced things, because we just moved into a new unit, and now we will not be able to learn the things in that unit, but at least we are keeping our math skills existent. Reason two: the things we are doing are very repetitive. We do the same thing every day. 30 minutes of math, watching the read aloud, and 60 minutes of reading. This makes it kind of boring. Always doing the same thing every day does not help my learning at all. I do like These writing assignments though. I think that they are not too repetitive, and get me thinking. Overall, school at home is not like regular school, and besides the writing assignments, I do not like it.

New York city is special to me because it is so big. It has so many people, And I love crowded spaces with a lot of people. Another reason I love it is the food. There is so much food from many different cultures, for example, there is Thai food, and Mexican food, we even went to a place that served French food. There is food from everywhere, and it is delicious.

There are also so many places to be. When we went, we went to the natural history museum, which has a lot of things having to do with natural science, the comic shop, the aquarium, and a random clothing shop. There are so many places to go, so if you can’t go to one place, there are other, very interesting places to go.

Also, NYC has something for everybody. For example if you love sports, like my brother, you can go to a sports game, and if you love Star Wars, like me, you can go to a comic shop. I love New York City for all these reasons and more, and It definitely is my number one favorite place.
