  • Hello! I'm Jake, and I'm a student. I want to tell you about my day at school. I wake up early in the morning, at around 7:00 AM. The first thing I do is take a shower, put on my school uniform, and then have my breakfast. I usually eat cereal for breakfast but sometimes my mom will make me pancakes, which are my favourite. After breakfast, I grab my backpack and walk to school. It's not far, just a 10-minute walk.

     

    School starts at 8:30. In the morning, we have different classes like math, English, and science. My favourite is science because we get to do cool experiments.We have a break at 10:30. I play soccer with my friends in the schoolyard, and sometimes we share snacks. After the break, we have more classes. We study things like history and art. Art is fun because we get to draw and paint.

     

    Lunchtime is at 12:30. I eat in the school cafeteria with my friends. I usually bring a sandwich or buy something from the cafeteria. After lunch, we have a short break to play basketball before the afternoon classes. In the afternoon, we study more subjects like geography and music. I like playing the piano in music class. The bell rings at 3:30, and school is over.

     

    I go home, and my mom asks me about my day. I do my homework, and then I have time to watch T.V. Dinner is at 7:00, and after that, I brush my teeth and go to bed. That's my day at school. I learn new things, meet with my friends, and have a lot of fun!
