Hi! My name is Allison. I will be telling you what type of person I am. My dad thinks that I am energetic, because I am always looking for something to do and I cannot sit still without doing anything. My favorite quiet time is reading, which I can do for hours at one sitting.

As for my mom, she thinks that I am very observant and is quick to the point when I am given a story problem to solve.

My sister Andrea thinks I am really smart, because I know how to do very difficult abacus math. She is only 5 years old, so she does not know a lot of things yet. Maybe it’s good that she stays thinking that way.

I think I am a helpful person, because I enjoy helping others. I feel good about myself when I can help my friends with their math work by explaining each steps on how to solve them.
