callvins days at school

Hello! My name is Calvin I am writing this letter to describe my school: Bill Watterson’s school It’s a Secondary school I am in Year I am 13 years old I remember that I loved my teachers in Kindergarten where I learnt the basics of reading and writing but also I used to play, to draw, to sing and dance ,etc When I changed school I went to a Primary School I attended lessons in Infant Education as well as Primary Education Those years were great because we used to play and have fun with all my friends I like my school It seems to be a bit old, but it’s cool and has got character The teachers are nice and understanding, and we have lots of activities, so we never get bored There are interesting places to go There are a gymnasium and a big playground Some pupils like going there after classes to play football There is also a library with lots of old books At first it seems to be an unpleasant place to stay because of the dust in the bookshelves In the library there aren’t only books; there is a television, a computer, some magazines Then there are the classrooms They are many They are cosy and comfortable There are some specific rooms, too Some of them are called laboratories There is a laboratory of Chemistry, Physics and Biology There are three computer rooms, I think Finally, there is a music room I play the flute I think I play it well, but my teacher doesn’t agree I really like studying here My favourite subjects are English and Maths I love my timetable I get up at 7:30 a.m to come to school every day I have classes at 8:30 I finish at 2.30 p.m every day It gives me time to afterschool activities like theatre I am studying languages and I go to the Language Club three times a week There I can read magazines in German and French, watch a foreign video and listen to music I am studying hard this year because we have to take a lot of exams I have two exams in each term We have three terms every year I am not a nerd/swot/bookworm but I have never used a trot I don’t cheat in the exams I learn by heart and try to understand everything I learn I always try to my best I use learning strategies, I underline my notes and make summaries Have you taken any exam this year?
