Daniel Cresson  is a Canadian boy. He always gets up at 6.30 on weekdays and he leaves home at 7.15. He lives in the old part of Montreal, near the port. He goes to school by tube (underground) and then he walks. The whole journey is about forty-five minutes.

He finishes school at 2.45. He usually has lunch at the cantin. Then he often stays at school on Monday and Wednesday because he does weight training. On Fridays he plays hockey. He loves sports. After the match, he goes to a restaurant with a school friend and has a salad and some meat or fish.

On Saturdays he is very tired so he sleeps until late. He usually helps his parents in the house. In the evening he often goes to a movie or to a friend’s house. They play games, talk or watch television together. On Sundays he relaxes an he does his homework.

   I get up at 7.45 every day. I have a shower and then I have breakfast in the kitchen with my brothers. I go to school by bus. I study English and other subjects. I have lunch at home at 2.45. In the afternoon  I do my homework and play football or tennis.  Sometimes I read a book or I watch TV. I have dinner at 9.30 and I go to bed at 11.00

This is a short text about the place I live:

I live in a beautiful town. There is a big supermarket , my mum buys the food there. There are also many shops to buy many things. There is a nice park and the children can play there. My house is not very big but it is comfortable. My neighbours are friendly except the man next door, he has got a noisy dog and he makes a lot of noise. There is a primary school and there is also a High school. I study 1st year of ESO. I like my school. My classroom is on the first floor. I have got many friends. There is a green blackboard ant twenty-three desks and chairs for the students. There are three windows and some curtains.
There are many classrooms, a bar, two computer rooms, a science laboratory and a big yard to play during the break.
