In my opinion, it is necessary to have a day to celebrate for our parents. Children will have a special day to express their feelings, memories and love for their parents. We have opportunity to enhance family tradition. Members of family can have a chance to get together. When to celebrate: First Sunday of April: Sunday is a day off so every body is free from work or study It is a good idea to have lunch or dinner. They should give their parents flowers, send cards, special cakes. I believe the idea will be supported and the day will be celebrated nationwide. * Self-evaluation: …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… Teacher: Bui Xuan Thoai
