Nadia wrote a report about her grandma's job. She made some spelling mistakes. Read the report and her dictionary.

My Grandma's Job (Nadia's First Draft)

1My grandma has a dry cleaning shop on Elm Street. People bring her coats, shirts, and dressis. She cleans the clothes with special machines, and she sews on loose buttons too.

2Last Saturday, I helped at the shop. First, I carryed a pile of shirts to the back room. Grandma was pressing pants on a hot, flat board. She showed me how steam makes a wrinkel go away.

3Then a man hurryed through the door. He needed his suit for a wedding that night. Grandma found the suit and put it in a long bag. She zipt the bag and handed it to him with a smile.

4At six o'clock, we stoped working and locked the door. My arms were tired, but I was proud. I want to help people look their best, just like Grandma.
