Homework for 3rd Grade. Community Helpers
Have you ever wondered why we have doctors, policeman, teachers, librarians, firemen, garbage custodians, cooks, veterinarians, bus drivers and mechanics? We call these people Community Helpers. A community helper is anyone in the community who helps others by providing a service of some kind. They are all different and have different jobs. Did you know that these people also work in other states or countries? Oh yes, they work all over the world. So you see they are very important people. We are going to learn about these different people and what they do for our community. Take a look at the sites below to learn more about their jobs.
Mission
Now that you have explored the websites and learned about what community helpers are and their different jobs,
you will get a chance to be one too. Now I want you to imagine that you are a community helper. You will
choose only one helper and tell why it is important to you. You will also draw a picture of the helper. Then you will tell who you are and what your job is.
Have a great day helping out your neighbors!

2. Draw a picture of yourself as the helper and tell what you are doing.

Restaurant Complaint Letter
Dear Mr Bean,
Over the years, my associates have spent many enjoyable hours (not to mention a fair amount of money) at your restaurant. So I was all the more shocked by my incredibly disappointing experience on _(date)_ .
Here's what happened: the food was very awful, the soup was very cold and the meat was salty, thight and hard. I'm sure you will agree this is not acceptable, especially in a restaurant with this reputation, atmosphere, and cost.
I certainly hope that some kind of staff change or other uncommon occurrence is to blame. Please contact me to explain the circumstances so that I can decide whether to return to your establishment, and if I will continue to recommend it to people I know.
Please contact me as soon as you look into this matter. I would also appreciate receiving some kind of compensation for my trouble; perhaps a free meal. If you have any questions, you can reach me at 555-555-5555.
Sincerely,
Bart Simpson.

Pumpkins: Not Just for Halloween
Download MP3 (Right-click or option-click the link.)
I’m Faith Lapidus with the VOA Special English Agriculture Report.
Many Americans celebrated Halloween on Monday by placing pumpkins outside their homes. A Halloween tradition is to cut a face into the big, round squash.
Pumpkins are also an important part of the Thanksgiving holiday in late November. Tradition says early settlers ate pumpkin pie, or something similar to it, with the Native Americans during the first celebration.
Pumpkins are members of the gourd family. They are related to melons, cucumbers and squashes. They are, like all of their relatives, fruit, not vegetables. Pumpkins have firm flesh, seeds in the center and a shell that is usually orange. And they contain more vitamin A than almost any other fruit.
Pumpkins have been grown for thousands of years in North and Central America. They have been grown for so long, in fact, it is unclear what wild relative the plant has. Pumpkins grow on vines or bushes. Most pumpkins weigh a few kilograms, but some have reached well over four hundred fifty kilograms.
Pumpkin flowers are usually fertilized by bees. The insects carry reproductive material called pollen from the male to the female flowers. No fruit will grow if the female flower is not pollinated at the right time.
Closely related squashes and gourds can also fertilize pumpkins. This cross-pollination will show itself not in the current year’s pumpkins, but in seeds grown the following year.
Pumpkin is used in pies, breads, cakes and other baked goods. Baked pumpkin seeds are also a popular food. Pumpkin filling for pies is produced industrially.
Pumpkins are very low in acid, unlike many fruits. This makes canned pumpkin a place where the bacteria that causes botulism food poisoning can grow. For this reason, experts say it is not a good idea to can crushed pumpkin at home. Whole pumpkins, however, store well in cool, dark places for weeks.
Less than one percent of the American pumpkin supply is imported or exported. Most pumpkins are used in the states where they are grown. Prices can be very different from place to place.
American farmers grew over four hundred fifty million kilograms of pumpkins last year. The crop was valued at about one hundred million dollars.
