I speak English at school and at home, and even though I can understand Spanish and Kriol, I always speak English. In Belize, it is good manners to greet someone with the time of day, so instead of "hello," we say, "Good morning/afternoon/evening!"
At my school, "Mia" is a common girls' name, and "Jose" is a common boys' name. I also have more than one friend named Sofia.
In school, we study math, English, science, religion (Catholicism), Belizean history, art, physical education and Spanish. My favorite subject is science, and we are learning about the solar system. My favorite planet is Jupiter because it is pretty, and I like the Red Spot.
For homework, I always have a lot of math, and I study for my quizzes and tests. Sometimes, for homework, they ask us to bring in supplies for projects!
After school, I like to play at home with my little brother, Daniel, jump on the bed or play with my cousins at their house. Sometimes, I have football (soccer) practice after school, and playing on the field is my favorite.
