Daily schedule. I wake up every morning at 7 o'clock. I take a shower. I eat my breakfast. I usually have toast or cereal. I brush my teeth. I put on my clothes. I catch the school bus. I ride to school. In my class we have math and English before recess. At recess time the girls skip or walk around and talk. The boys play in the playground or play baseball.

After recess we have physical education and geography. We eat lunch and then we play outside. When the bell rings we line up to go back into the classroom. After lunch we have history and science. At recess we play ball again. Some of the girls play ball too. In the winter we build snowmen. If it is too cold we stay indoors and talk to each other.

After recess we have music and health. We get out of school at 3.30. I sometimes walk home with my friends or I take the bus. I have a snack and change my clothes when I get home. If it is raining I watch television. If it is nice outside I play with my friends. I have supper at 5.30. On some nights I help my mother to do the dishes.

After supper I do my homework. I wash my face and hands and brush my teeth. I change into my pajamas. I go to bed at 9 o'clock.
