Reading: A day at school

My name is Rose. Today is my first day of school. I am a new student. My father drives me
to school in the car.

I have a blue school bag. There are a book, a pencil, a ruler and some crayons in my school
bag. My lunch box is yellow. I have an apple and a banana in my lunch box. I like fruit.

I am in classroom number two. It is big and has a white board. The teacher has a desk and a
chair. I have a chair also. My teacher is very nice. I have to listen to the teacher and I have
to be quiet when she speaks. My teacher tells me to sit next to the boy. His name is John.
There are 20 students in my class.

My school has different rooms. There are 15 classrooms, a library, a computer room and a
music room. There is also a small playground with swings and a slide. I play with all the
girls and boys. I only play in the playground, not in the classroom. I like my new school.
