Reading:
Hi. I’m Peter. I’m fourteen years old and I study at Shakespeare School in Birmingham. I usually
get up at six o’clock, have breakfast then go to school. I walk because I live nearby. Many
children go by car or by school bus. I usually wear a uniform, except when I have physical
education. Then I have to wear a white T-shirt with the school's name, blue shorts and white
socks.

I study English, Spanish and German. My favourite subject is English. I’m good at it and my teacher is
very nice. I hate mathematics because I find it difficult and the teacher is very strict.

School starts at half past seven. We have two classes and then we have a break. We play football in the
yard (1). Sometimes I go to the cafeteria (2) to buy something to drink.

My school is well equipped. There is a laboratory (3) for experiments, a library (4), and a music room (5)
where we can play instruments, a computer room (6), where we learn how to use a computer. We have
also a canteen (7) where we can have lunch when we have classes in the afternoon.
When the teachers are not in the classrooms (7), they stay in the teachers’ room (9) next to the
headmaster’s office (10), not far from the secretary’s room (11). In each floor, there are bathrooms (12).

 Write « true » or « false » :

a. Peter is a prep school pupil.


b. He always wears a uniform.
c. He lives far from school.

d. He doesn’t like math because it’s very hard.


e. He studies two foreign languages.
f. Sometimes they have classes in the afternoon.
g. The teachers’ room is next to the headmaster’s office.
 Re-read the last paragraph and identify the different school parts.
Post-reading : write a short letter to your penfriend to describe your school.
