 I thought this student did a great job making connections and still giving us information about the person. Hope you like it!

 

Ronald Regan

By Emma

4th grader

 

            Do you know how the 40th president of the United Sates was? It was Ronald Regan.

 

            Ronald and I have a lot of qualities that are different. For example, he was the 40th president of the United States and I would never want to take all of that responsibility for our country. Ronald was born in Tampico, Illinois; I was born in Sparks, Nevada. He was born February 11, 1911; I was born November 3, 2000.

 

            Ronald and I also have a lot in common. For instance, his mother’s name was Nelle Clyde Wilson; my teacher’s name is Mrs. Wilson. We are both conservatives. Ronald’s vice president was George H Bush. I would have picked him as my vice president too. Ronald was an actor before becoming president, I would like to become an actor too someday. He loved jelly beans and I do too!

 

            Ronald died in 2004. He was a great president. Nobody will ever be as great as a president as him.
