Joleen Daku

9.5 My Name is...

My name is Joleen Daku. I was born on November 28th 1977 in Kipling. I am 22 now. I will be 23. I live with my Mom and Dad on the farm. I have a big family: Mervin, Greg, Janice, Barb, Murray, Kevin, and Joleen. I work at Kipling Industries and I also work at the care home and school library. At Kipling Industries, I sort paper and meet new friends like my special, best friend, whose name is Wanda, my pal. I also cleaned up for the open house on May 9th. At the care home I fold laundry. At the school I collect cans and juice boxes and pop bottles and collect paper too. I like to watch TV and do my crafts and I like to ride my bike. Some day I’d like to live on my own.

In the literacy program are Wanda and Joleen. We made posters and learned about your body. We play a game called Spelling Words. We draw pictures. I like the literacy program. I hope we will do it again next time.
