MOUNTAIN
SCHOOL
Sa

Hi! School is great. I like all the subjects. We do lots of things. We read books and write
stories and poems in Language. In Science, we do experiments. We read about ecology
and weather conditions, and we learn about recycling. Very interesting. We do gym and
play sports, and we do yoga! I like Social Studies: we study ancient civilizations and learn
about different countries in the world. Music? We sing and play musical instruments.
That’s cool! I love Art. We make collages, we draw and paint and we learn about different
painters. My favourite? Arcimboldo. In Computer Studies, we use computers and make
presentations or look for information online. Some information is good, but some is not!
Maths isn’t difficult. I like it. We work with numbers and calculations, and we do Geometry
as well. I’m in my English class now, and this is my English homework. Do you like it?
