Pre Writing
Ullis Newton, Henderson Nevada
Teacher: Shanna Giraldes
We chose the Galleria Mall as our site to describe because it is a cool
place to hang out. It is the coolest place to buy things. I mean there are
lots of candy stores, clothing stores, and toy stores. The Galleria Mall has a huge
Arcade. It is the biggest and only mall in Henderson, Nevada. The Galleria
Mall has a huge food court with lots of selections. They have a cool Halloween shop where,
if you go there, you will be scared out of your mind. Many people buy clothes in the
mall. The Game Keeper is
the 2nd biggest toy store. It is my favorite because it has lots of Pokemon stuff.
The Galleria Mall is a great place for kids.
