The school starts at 6:15 in the morning. I usually leave around 12:15 in the afternoon. I have my lunch at home. I am good at math; I also like history and geography but my favorite subject is science. I like playing basketball and soccer. I also play volleyball, and I like swimming. On weekends, I go to the movie theater with my friends. We like action movies. I usually go to church with my parents on Sundays.
Please write and tell me about you and your life. What’s your family like? What do you like doing in your spare time?
I hope to hear from you soon.
Best wishes,
Katherine

When I was ten, I had many toy cars. I would play with them, repair the ones my friends broke. I also used to help my dad fix his car.
