Lucas goes to school every day of the week. He has many subjects to go to each school
day: English, art, science, mathematics, gym, and history. His mother packs a big
backpack full of books and lunch for Lucas.
His first class is English, and he likes that teacher very much. His English teacher says
that he is a good pupil, which Lucas knows means that she thinks he is a good student.
His next class is art. He draws on paper with crayons and pencils and sometimes uses a
ruler. Lucas likes art. It is his favorite class.
His third class is science. This class is very hard for Lucas to figure out, but he gets to
work with his classmates a lot, which he likes to do. His friend, Kyle, works with Lucas
in science class, and they have fun.
Then Lucas gets his break for lunch. He sits with Kyle while he eats. The principal, or
the headmaster as some call him, likes to walk around and talk to students during lunch
to check that they are all behaving.
The next class is mathematics, which most of the students just call math. Kyle has
trouble getting a good grade in mathematics, but the teacher is very nice and helpful.
His fourth class is gym. It is just exercising.
History is his last class of the day. Lucas has a hard time staying awake. Many lessons
are boring, and he is very tired after doing gym.
Translation:
Lucas va al colegio todos los días de la semana. Tiene muchas asignaturas a las que asistir cada
día lectivo: Inglés, arte, ciencias, matemáticas, gimnasia e historia. Su madre le prepara una
gran mochila llena de libros y el almuerzo.
Su primera clase es inglés, y le gusta mucho ese profesor. Su profesora de inglés dice que es un
buen alumno, lo que Lucas sabe que significa que piensa que es un buen estudiante.
Su siguiente clase es arte. Dibuja en papel con ceras y lápices y a veces utiliza una regla. A
Lucas le gusta el arte. Es su clase favorita.
La tercera clase es Ciencias. Esta clase es muy difícil de entender para Lucas, pero tiene que
trabajar mucho con sus compañeros, cosa que le gusta hacer. Su amigo Kyle trabaja con Lucas
en la clase de ciencias y se divierten.
Después, Lucas tiene su descanso para comer. Se sienta con Kyle mientras come. Al director, o
director como algunos le llaman, le gusta pasearse y hablar con los alumnos durante el
almuerzo para comprobar que todos se portan bien.

My Wonderful Family
I live in a house near the mountains. I have two brothers and one sister, and I
was born last. My father teaches mathematics, and my mother is a nurse at a
big hospital. My brothers are very smart and work hard in school. My sister is a
nervous girl, but she is very kind. My grandmother also lives with us. She came
from Italy when I was two years old. She has grown old, but she is still very
strong. She cooks the best food!
Mi familia es muy importante para mí. Hacemos muchas cosas juntos. A mis
hermanos y a mí nos gusta dar largos paseos por la montaña. A mi hermana le
gusta cocinar con mi abuela. Los fines de semana jugamos todos juntos a
juegos de mesa. Nos reímos y siempre lo pasamos bien. Quiero mucho a mi
familia.
