Example: Teacher Belinda’s last holiday
I went to American when I went on my last holiday last summer. I went to Colorado, and Florida, where I live in both states. I went to see my family, and friends. I also went to see my horse, Butter.
My horse lives in the Colorado Rocky mountains. I can ride him outside, but I like to ride him inside an enclosed arena. I had a great time riding my horse, seeing my family, and friends.
I went to restaurants with family and friends and I had great food! I also went to a place called “South Park.” It’s in Colorado. It’s an authentic town rebuilt from the 1800’s. It is very famous.
Then, I went hiking in the mountains with my friends. I took pictures of eagles, and other wildlife. The weather was very nice, and I had a great time. I miss my friends, family and my horse and cannot wait to see them again this summer.
