mum, my little brother Alfie and my dog, Cookie. We live in a small house in
Greenwich. It's got three bedrooms and a small garden.
| live near my school so I walk to school every day. | like school and my
favourite subjects are Maths and ICT. | want to work with computers when I
leave school. What about you? What subjects do you like at school? I enjoy
playing hockey and I'm in the school hockey team. Last week we won a
match and I scored a goal!
My best friends are Jo and Steph and we're in the same class. Our teacher
Mrs Jenkins is nice, but sometimes she gives us lots of homework :(. After
school I often go to a café with my friends. The café has got Wi-Fiso we can
chat online and then usually we go home to do our homework.
At the weekend | sometimes play in hockey matches and | often go roller-
skating in the park. 'm good at roller-skating because | can go very fast and
sometimes | skate when I take my dog for a walk!
Write soon and tell me all about yourself, your friends and your family.

Autobiography:
Iwas born on December 2, 2000. I have lived in Sanger and Fresno
during my life. My family moved from Sanger to Fresno last year. We lived in
an apartment in Sanger and now we live in a house about a 15 minute walk
from school.
I went to Jackson Elementary School in Sanger. I went there from
kindergarten to sixth grade. I had many good teachers and friends. I was a
member of the basketball and track team
1am now a seventh grade student at Kings Canyon Middle School. [have
6 different teachers at this school. I also have a plus teacher that I go to
sometimes. I do like middle school better than elementary school.
Ihave one sister and two brothers. Their names are Betty. Ricky. and
Rusty. am the youngest in the family. Of all my sibling. I spend the mast time
with Rusty. He is only four years older than me. Betty and Ricky are 9 and 8
years older than me.
My favorite music is rock. I enjoy listening to music because it helps me
relax and forget about all the things that I have to do. My favorite group is the
Foo Fighters. I hope to see them in concert someday.
In the future, I hope to improve my grades. On my first quarter report
card. [had a grade point average of 2.5. My goal is to get it above a 3.0. [also
want to try to have all my grades be an A or aB.‘Som Valet Greene « 22-yearald student 1]
