My daily routine
Hello,
I am James and I always get up at 7 oclock to get ready
for school. I wash my face, brush my teeth and brush
my hair and put on my coolest clothes. Then I have
breakfast with my family. I like cereal with some fruit and yoghurt. My sister prefers milk and toast with
jam. We leave for school together at 8 oclock by bus.
Today is Tuesday and my lessons start at 8:30 a.m. I have Maths, English and History in the morning. At
midday I have lunch in the canteen. In the afternoon I dont have lessons, so I stay with my friends. We do
our homework and then we play football or basketball. Sometimes we ride our bikes or we go to the park
and do some skateboarding. I love being with my friends.
I go home around 4 oclock. I have something to eat, I play with my pets or I play a game. Then, before
dinner, I have a shower and help my mother. We have dinner at 8 oclock. After dinner we watch TV or
play games together. I usually go to bed at 10:30 p.m.
