Here are four letters to their headmasters from students in different places
 Li Xue, 14, f'rom Jiangsu |
I will give some suggestions about our school uniform. In our school, we have to wear school uniform every day. But the yellow and green sports uniform looks really dark and old. It can't stand for young and lively spirit. We can add some red or orange color and make a new type of uniform. |
 Liu Hua. 14, from Fujian |
I have two suggestions for my headmaster. First, I think we should have more hobby classes in science, such as plane model making class and computer programming（编程）class. And second, I hope' we can have more PE lessons or more time for physical exercise. |
 Han Bo,15, from Shanxi |
I'd like to say thanks to my math teacher. About one week ago, I got a bad cold af'ter playing basketball. My math teacher came to me after he knew about it. He took care of me until my parents came. I really want to thank him for that. |
 Zhao Fei, 14, from Hebei |
I want to talk about the possibility of personal classes. Now many middle schools are trying the "personal class" system. Students don't have regular (普通的) classes in their schools. They can choose lessons they want to take. They don't have to stay in one classroom all the time. I think it is more effective. And it is also good for exercise. |
