MY FIRST DAY AT SCHOOL
Hello grandfather,
You know I am in 3rd grade now and yesterday was my first day at school and I wanted to tell you about it.
I got up around 8 o’clock in the morning and was ready in 30 minutes. I was feeling very nervous and I was also feeling sorry that my summer holiday was over but my mother talked to me and hugged me and I felt better. My dad drove me to school and wished me good luck.
I have a blue school bag and there was a book, a notebook, a ruler and my pencil case in it. My lunch box is green and I had a toast and a banana in it. When I went up to my class, I saw that there were 20 students in the class and I didn’t know some of them. I saw some of my friends and I felt so happy because I missed them. My best friend, Jane wasn’t in the classroom and I felt worried about her. I asked my teacher but he didn’t know, either. During the break, I went down to the playground. Our school has a small playground and it has swings and a slide. I played with my friends.
During the 2nd lesson, someone knocked on the door and it was Jane. When I saw her, I felt so happy that I wanted to go and hug her. She apologised to our teacher and said that their car broke down on the way to school and so her father had to take the car to a mechanic. That’s why she was late. She came and sat next to me and we read books and sang songs in that lesson.
During the lunch time, I shared my banana with Jane and she gave me half of her apple. We left school at 3 o’clock and my dad took me home. When I went home, I told everything that happened at school to my mother. I was feeling a little nervous in the morning but now I feel so relaxed.
My mom is making pasta now because it is my favourite food. When my father comes, we will eat it together.
Take good care.
