assist

This month, it’s my job to assist or help our teacher when she cleans the cage for our classs pet mouse. Since I love animals, I enjoy assisting her or doing that job with her. My brother and I have a pet rabbit at home, and I always assist my dad by holding our rabbit when he cleans out her cage. Both my teacher and my dad seem to like when I assist them—they always say that I’m very helpful.
