Dear Mr & Mrs Miller,
      This semester, Ricky can do better in self-control (自我控制) but he is not always in the way we want
him to. I think more care will help him out of his difficulties. Ricky has an excellent mind (頭腦), but it is
hard for him to do his work for a long time. However, he seems to be better now.
     Ricky is able to do his homework very well. He reads very well, sometimes too fast. He spells very
carefully and uses the words correctly (正確地) in his homework. He can also work out the math problems
quite easily.
     Ricky is very interested in science. He enjoys reading library books and writing reports about many of
them in an interesting way.
     I enjoy having Ricky in my class. He is going to study in Grade Three next semester. Miss King will be
his teacher.
                                                                                                                  Sincerely yours,
                                                                                                                   Cindy Brown
                                                                                                                 Second-grade teacher
