"I eat lunch in the school cafeteria with all of my friends. I have a lot of them, they really like me. My favorite food is chicken. I don’t get to eat it a lot but I love it. For lunch at school they make us banku, fufu, sometimes they make rice balls too.”
“At school the teachers make sure we only speak English, French, or Twi. Most of the kids speak English a lot so we can learn it better. So many people in Ghana speak Twi so we have to learn it as best we can. There are kids at my school who speak French and need help learning English and Twi. Hello in French is Bonjour, and in Twi it is Ete Sen?”
“Everyone has different names at school. My best friend’s name is Catherine. A lot of boys are names Emmanuel. Some of my friends are Jannet, Idarra, Adjoa, and sometimes we call each other by our day names.”
"I study science, and math, and French, and English, and my favorite subject is Twi. It's so much fun to speak! I like that I can speak to other people in this language too because so many people speak it."
“My teacher gives us all different types of homework. It depends what we are learning. My class gets a lot of paper with pictures and examples that show us how to do our work. For English sometimes I circle words with the short a sound or the long a sound. My math homework was counting up to 1000!”
