The First Days at School
It's September, the first week of it. It's time to go back to school.
What do pupils feel when they are at school again? Jason Ronald goes
to school in the city where he lives. It's Chicago, situated in the north
of the USA. Jason is fourteen. He is fond of athletics [æe'letiks] and
swimming. This is what Jason says about the first days of school.
“I love the long summer vacation and never want to go back to school
when it finishes. I have to be at school at 9.00 a.m. on the first day,
but I always leave my house late and I have to run. I try to arrive at
school before the bell rings and find my friends. On the first day at
school they usually tell each other what they did in summer. We all go
to our classroom. Our teachers tell us about our new classes and what
we are going to do this year. Then we have real classes. The first days
of school are like a big party because everybody sees their friends again.
I usually like these days the best.”
