Dear parents and fellow students,

I am writing to share with you a collection of essays from the English textbook for sixth grade. In this collection, you will find a variety of topics and themes that we have covered throughout the first semester. These essays show our progress and growth in English writing.

The first topic we explored was about our daily routine. We learned how to describe our morning routines, the activities we do after school, and how we spend our weekends. Through this topic, we developed our ability to use simple present tense and time expressions to talk about our daily activities.

Moving on, we delved into the world of animals. We wrote about our favorite animals and described their appearances, habitats, and behaviors. We also learned how to compare and contrast different animals. We had so much fun using words like "faster," "stronger," and "smarter" to make comparisons and express our preferences.

In addition, we learned about different types of festivals and celebrations around the world. We wrote essays about traditional holidays such as Christmas, Chinese New Year, and Thanksgiving. By researching and writing about these festivals, we deepened our cultural understanding and showcased our creativity in describing the customs and traditions associated with each festival.

Furthermore, we explored the theme of friendship. We learned how to write personal narratives about our friends and the special moments we shared. We discussed the qualities of a good friend and reflected on our own behaviors as friends. Through writing about friendship, we not only improved our language skills but also learned valuable lessons about empathy and compassion.

Lastly, we wrote persuasive essays on various topics such as the importance of recycling, the benefits of sports, and the need to protect endangered species. Through persuasive writing, we learned to present convincing arguments and provide evidence to support our opinions. It was a great opportunity for us to voice our thoughts on important issues and develop critical thinking skills.

In this collection, you will see the growth and improvement we have made in our English writing. We hope that you will enjoy reading our essays as much as we enjoyed writing them. Through this journey of learning, we have not only expanded our vocabulary and grammar skills but also gained confidence and the ability to express ourselves in English.

Thank you for your constant support and encouragement. We are proud to share these essays with you and hope that they reflect our hard work and dedication to learning English.

Sincerely,

[Your Name]
