First Day of School

By Charlie.

The first day of school was hard. I didn't know what was going on. All I knew was that the kid in front of me spoke English. The boys in my class knew I was new and from California and they let me play with them. We had an hour of recess and two hours for lunch recess. We had a thirty-minute recess and also a 15-minute one at the end of the day. I didn’t understand what the teacher was saying but at least he spoke a good amount of English. When the day was over and I saw my parents I ran over to them and gave them a big hug. I was tired. I fell right into bed and fell asleep. Can you believe I just spent a whole day in 5th grade in a French-speaking school? I can’t. And I have to go back tomorrow. Even though it was super tiring it was actually super fun. I met the kid in front of me who spoke English and his name is Basile. Between Basile and Evie, I had two people who could speak English. Even though there were four recesses, I still miss Seve.
