this is my daughter,s homework she has gone to bed all upset as she is unclear how to set about this. I said id help but unsure myself. it like you have to give abrief synopsis,based on these questions. ill give the first one see if anybody can help. write a letter to one of your best 3 friendsback in Berlin

What year is she in? I would suggest she write about how she (Bruno) is feeling, what the new house is like, perhaps tell the secret of how she is friends with a boy called Schmuel, also maybe put some more banal stuff in like how his sister (can't remember her name) is still being very annoying and then finish with some questions of what life is like back in Berlin.

Also- has she been given the success criteria for the homework i.e. what it is she should have achieved through doing it?
