 Dear Mom and Dad,
 I’m very happy to tell you that I’m going to join the Y & Y Green Group of my school.
 The Green Group is holding/having an environment month plan. We are going to clean the banks of the lakes on weekends. We are go9ing to plant trees and flowers in the school garden and water them every afternoon after class. We are planting young tress and plants to sell to other schools.
