A NORMAL DAY

I listen to the alarm clock at seven o'clock. I wake up and I get up at half past seven. Then I go to the toilet and I have a shower. After that I go to the kitchen and I say "good morning" to my mum and I kiss her. I have breakfast. I eat some biscuits and I drink a glass of milk. Next I go to the bathroom and I brush my teeth. Then I make my bed and I tidy my room. I also dress up and I prepare my schoolbag. I say "goodbye" and I go to school with my friends. We walk on foot and we talk about school, sports, music... Finally we arrive to the classroom and the lessons start.

All class did it.



It's twenty five past eight. After saying "good morning" to everybody, I go to my chair and my table. I sit on my chair and I prepare my material. After that I listen to the teacher and I correct the exercises. When the lesson finishes I talk with my partners. Then another lesson starts because the teacher is in class and it is the history lesson, we open our books and notebooks and we do what the teacher says. It's time to go to the playground. I love going to the playground. I usually stay in the playground with my friends. I have my snack and I drink a juice. After that I have a Catalan lesson and a free Credit. My free Credit is Physical Education. I love P.E. Finally, the lessons finish and I go back home on foot with my friends. We talk and laugh all the way.
