Dear Ms. Denise,

All through the year, I would like have been wanting to ask you something
that keeps popping up in my mind. I would like to ask you if we (6DH) could have
a class pet.

The pet will make us do things better than you expect. Firstly our pet will
make 6DH have fun and be full of joy. Secondly, this will make us want to come to
school to see you and the pet every day. Thirdly it will make our class learn hard
and concentrate more than we usually do. Fourthly, it’s a good thing because it
makes more animals in the world have homes. Lastly, this pet will make us gain
more knowledge by teaching ourselves us about the pet’s food, life cycle, families
etc.

However I know that you wouldn’t want a class pet because you “think” that
you will have “extra work”. But in reality we (6DH) will take good care of our
pet. The other problem is about the pet’s food. And a way to solve this problem is
that people in this class can donate the money. The last problem I can think of is
that where would the pet would go on holidays and weekends. And the possible
solution is that any students can take it home.

Overall I think we should have a class pet because it will make our class
livelier.

Sincerely,

Joy
