An Interview with Kids Like You!

What time does school start, and what time do you go home?:

School starts at 8:30 a.m. and ends at 3:30 p.m., which is very similar to your school schedule.

How do you get to school? Are you allowed to go to school by yourself?:

Kaelyn's dad always takes her to school on the family's motorbike!

Where do you eat lunch? What is your favorite food?:

Kaelyn eats lunch at school, and Davin eats lunch at home with his parents. Kaelyn’s favorite food is creamy carbonara noodles, which is a type of pasta made with egg, cheese, black pepper and bacon. Davin’s favorite food is burgers.

What language do you speak at school? How do you say "Hello" in your language?:

They speak Thai and English at school. Kaelyn is part of the Mini English Program at her school, so she speaks more English in her classes than in a typical Thai school. To say "hello" in Thai, girls say "sawasdee ka," and boys say "sawasdee krab."

What are some common kids' names at your school?:

Some common names are Pongsakorn (for boys) and Arada (for girls).

What subjects do you study in school, and which one is your favorite?:

Thai students take most of the same subjects at school as you, except they have both Thai and English classes! Kaelyn’s favorite subjects are art and music. Davin’s favorite subject is math.

What is your homework like?:

Davin does not have homework yet, and Kaelyn says she does not have a lot of homework.
