This is my persuasive letter: To the Mont Kiara Committee, I have composed this letter for you to know that my park is the best for our community. It will be enjoyed by the toddlers, the kids, the teens, the adults, couples, and the senior citizens. Not only will it have beautiful greenery for all to enjoy the beauty of nature, it will also have easy access to all including the disabled. The toddlers and children will enjoy the playground which has a swing, a slide, springy rides, a sand pit, and a bouncy-castle, while the parents will not need to worry for the picnic area is nearby so they can keep an eye on their children. The picnic area is a great way to spend time with your family or spend a romantic night with the one you love. It has wide open spaces and the environment is clean. Here you will be able to choose whether you want to eat at a picnic blanket, or at a table. The pond is found in the picnic area where ducks play, the children will definitely enjoy feeding the ducks or just watching them swim. There are also places to get snacks, a few vending machines and a McDonalds for the teens to hang out in. the toilets are conveniently found near all the other buildings. Parents need not worry in this park if their child goes missing, they can head to the service counter and make an announcement through the intercom. The service counter also provides you with medical attention and volunteers to help the people in wheelchairs. For the more active people, there is a rental shop, where you can rent bikes, scooters, skateboards, and roller blades. There is a track around the park where they can bike, scooter, skateboard, roller blade, and the parents may do some jogging as well. Also there is an open field where children can play soccer, tag, Frisbee with pets, or baseball if they bring their equipment. The best part of the park is that the admission is absolutely free but you might need some money to buy food, if not feel free to bring your own food. Just about everything you need would have already been provided except for food and things at the rental shop. Although the admission is free, you must bring your passports for safety reasons. As you have found out, my park is truly the best for our community. From, Leah Mae

This is my reflection: My Reflection I learned that it isn't fair for the disabled not to be able to go everywhere anyone else can go to because they cant really help the way they are. i think that it is very important to have wheelchair friendly ramps so that the disabled will be treated well and they can enjoy what everyone else can. also if your area had easy access for everyone, more people will go to you and you can feel good about yourself. if the place is difficult to have access to, then not a lot of people will go, and you may have a chance of being accused of not treating all people equally. today, many places are hard to access. even if you can get to different floors in malls, you have to go really far just to get to an elevator.

in the process of making the park, i learned how to think more carefully about who was going to go there and if it was difficult to get there. you had to make sure that the children can play without the parents worrying about them and that the areas areas aren't too far away from each other so the elderly or the disabled wont have any problems. another thing i learned was trying to figure out what size each thing needed to be. you had to estimate how big it needed to be in real life so you can convert it.

for the next group of 6th graders, i suggest giving them a choice whether t do it electronically or by hand because some of the art lovers would like to make a poster. if they choose to make it electrically, i suggest for them to choose the software they want to use so they can work with what they have at home. Finally, i think that they should be given more time so that it is less stressful and so they can make a better project.
