Almost everybody has to go to school. I usually get up at 7:10 am. I brush my teeth, wash my face, hair, get dressed and have breakfast. After I pack my bag with my homework I go outside.

I meet my friends every morning. We walk to school together. My house is very close to school, it’s only a five-minute walk. Some students come with their parents.

Lesson one starts at 8:00 am. We are all excited to learn something new. My favorite lesson is Math. Our maths teacher is pretty strict and smart. I love his lessons. In Russian schools lessons are timed for 45 minutes. We have one break between each lesson. During time break between lessons I play games with my friends. I like spending time with them.

At 12:00 we have lunch time. Lunch is my favourite part of the school day. I get to eat and talk to my friends. We eat lunch in the canteen. After lunch it’s a Geography class. It’s normally a really boring class.

The school day gets out at 2:45 p.m. Then finally I get to go home and watch some YouTube videos. I get home at different times, depending on what I have after school. Teachers give us the homework assignment. So I do my homework that needs to be done at home. That’s my daily school routine.
