Hi! I’m a fifth-grade student at Napa Valley Language Academy in Napa, California.

The reason I’m writing to you is because my class is working on state reports and I have chosen your awesome state, Minnesota.

I would really appreciate it if you posted my letter in your newspaper so that I can get all the help that I need for my report. What I need from you or your readers are pamphlets, magazines, postcards, souvenirs or anything else that would be helpful.

I will be writing about your state’s agriculture, history, geography, economy, famous people and historical places. I will also be doing an oral report and a state float!

Thank you so much in advance for your support in making me a great researcher of your astounding state.

If you have any questions, please feel free to email my teacher at ihernandez@nvusd.org.
