Reading

同學們，你們最喜歡上什么課？讓我們一起來聽一聽Grace， Aaron和Billy是怎么說的吧。

I’m always excited when it’s time for art class. In art class， I can draw my favourite pictures. I can show myself and let my imagination run wild. Sometimes we work on big projects as a class， and it’s so much fun to see our artworks in the school hallway.

—Grace

Every history class is like an interesting trip. In history class， we travel to the past and learn about different cultures. We can talk about history and share our ideas. We can also learn from wise men in history and have a full understanding of ourselves. It’s fun and exciting！

—Aaron

I love P.E. class！ I love the feeling of running fast， jumping high， and being part of a team. In P.E.class， we move our bodies in different ways. We can run， jump and play ball games. Soccer is my favourite sport， and I like to play it with my friends. It’s exciting to score a goal.

—Billy
