Review & Stories 2

Anna at school 

Today’s Monday, we’re going to get up early and have breakfast together before going to school. Dad is giving us a sandwich and some fruit for break time. We’re going to keep it in our backpacks. We need energy for the whole day. 

- “Let’s go, guys, we have to get to school and make sure you have everything in your backpack.” said Dad. 

- “Don’t worry dad, you know I always check my backpack before going to sleep, so that I won’t forget anything.” I spoke. “I’ve got my homework, my school timetable, and my snack.” 

- “Let’s go! We’re going to be late!”. 

I go into the classroom and say hello to my classmates. We have our science class now and the teacher’s explaining a project. I’m going to listen to him. 

- “Today, we’re going to learn about the solar system.” said the teacher. “We’ll work in groups of four and each team will create their own scale model, remember. But it’s really important for everyone to participate ¹ and help each other complete the project.” 

After break time, my classmate, David, and I are going to the dining room. It smells so good. 

We always wash our hands before we eat. I’m going to show David how to use silverware ². We all eat vegetables because they’re healthy for us and they help us grow up strong. It’s delicious! 

After school, I’ll go home with mom, dad, and my little brother. Then I’ll do my homework and have dinner together as a family.
