Family life in England
Hi, my name is Craig. I am English because I was born in England, but I'm British because England is a part of Great Britain and is in the UK. I live in a typical English family. I have a father, a mother and a sister and we all live together in a house in the south-eastern part of England. At the back of our house there is a small garden.
The day starts at about 7 o'clock when Dad and Mum get up. We get up half an hour later. We have breakfast at 8 o'clock. After breakfast my sister and I put on our school uniform. We all leave the house by 8.30. Dad goes to work. He works with computers. Mum, my sister and I walk to school. My mum has to take a bus as she teaches in a different school. I take a packed lunch to school which contains things like sandwiches, fruit and a bag of crisps. Sometimes my friends and I swap our food. My favourite subjects at school are Science and History. My favourite topic in History is learning about ancient Egyptians. I also enjoy PE lessons - we play football, netball, cricket and sometimes we go cross-country running. We usually come back home at 4 o'clock. Dad gets home at about 6 o'clock. We eat together at about 7. I help Mum to wash up after dinner. I also tidy my bedroom. In the evenings I usually do my homework before watching telly. Mum sometimes helps me with my homework. My family likes to watch Eastenders and Coronation Street (English soap operas). On Thursdays I go to karate and my sister goes to ballet on Wednesdays. I am a Cub Scout and I like going camping. I like building fire and cooking on it. It is fun sleeping in the tents too. We usually go camping about twice a year. I enjoy playing on my computer and skateboarding. I have a pet rabbit called Sooty. I bet you can guess what colour it is. Black, of course.1.
