            <text>Dear Parents, &#13;
If you are not pleased with my work, even though I've been trying really hard,  I will try to do a little better. Mostly all of my spelling papers are on the bulletin board.  One of my arithmetic papers is on the arithmetic  bulletin boards. I hope you like the way our room is decorated. Please comment about my work on this paper. &#13;
Your loving daughter, Merle&#13;
&#13;
(Your excellent work makes us very proud of you. Keep up the good work and you'll be rewarded. Mom and Daddy)</text>
