Thanks for your letter. It's very interesting to know about schools in the USA. I think schools in
Vietnam are quite different. Vietnamese students usually wear uniform. Classes start at 7:00 each
morning and end at 11:15 in the afternoon. Students have a 30-minute break after three periods. At
break time, many students play games. Some go to the canteen and buy something to eat or drink.
Others talk together. Our school year lasts for 9 months, from September to May. Then we have a 3-
month summer vacation. We wait for a long time to come back to school to meet friends. I hope to
know more about schools in your country.
Your friends,
Hoa.
