Daily routine
Do you remember this text we discussed in October?
Hi there! I'm Jean Paul. I'm 12 and I live in Tours, in France. My city is about 250km from the capital, Paris. I live with my mum, my stepdad and my stepbrother, Thierry.
My day is very busy. I get up at 7 o'clock, have breakfast and leave for school. It's only 10 minutes on foot so I don't get the bus. I usually ride my bike to school. I'm never late.
Lessons start at 8. I'm in Year 5 and my favourite subject is Social Studies. We learn about our city and our rights. I also study ancient Greek! The Greek alphabet is so weird! We have a lunch break from 12 to 2 o'clock. I I don't eat at the school canteen. I go back home. Then, we have lessons again until half past four (boring!).
In the evening, after dinner, my parents watch TV. I prefer listening to my CDs and reading my comics. I also tidy my room a bit because my mum goes crazy if I don’t. But I hate it of course. I go to bed at around 11 o’clock.
After school, I always play the guitar for half an hour. I relax this way. Then, I do my homework. On Wednesdays, I play tennis at the tennis club. In France, we love playing tennis and cycling. Do you know anything about the Tour de France?

Who is the writer?
Who is the reader?
How is it written? Are there clear paragraphs?
What does Jean Paul say in the second paragraph?

Here are some questions. It would be great if you would answer them in your piece of writing.
How many subjects do you have?
How long do you have to go to school each day?
What are your three favourite subjets? Explain why you like them.
What do you like best about your school?
Are there any special events at your school?
Read your friend's email and response to her/him orally.Did s/he answer the questions? Was it easy and clear enough for you to understand the meaning? Do you think the paragraph was structured ?
