Tom Goes to School

Tom is seven years old. Today he goes to school.

Tom wakes up. He puts on his blue jacket. Mom gives him a green bag. In the bag, there is a book, a pencil, and an apple.

Tom and Mom walk to the school. It is near the river. It is big and yellow.

Tom stops at the door. He is a little scared. He looks at Mom. Mom smiles. Tom says, "Let's try!"

A woman stands in the room. She says, "Hello, Tom. I am your teacher." Tom says, "Hello." He goes in.

The room has small desks and big windows. Tom sits at a desk. A girl sits next to him. She says, "Hello. I am Mia."

"Hello, Mia. I am Tom," Tom says.

The teacher gives the children paper and pencils. "Let's draw," she says. Tom says, "Let's try!" He draws his house. It is next to the river.

Mia looks at the picture. "I like your house," she says.

"Thank you," Tom says.

Now it is time to paint. Tom takes a brush. He sees the blue paint. He says, "Let's try!" He paints the river blue. Mia paints a yellow sun.

After that, the children play outside. There is a big ball. Tom looks at the ball. He says, "Let's try!" He kicks it. The ball goes far. Mia runs after it. They laugh.

Then it is time to go home. Mom waits at the door. "Hello, Tom," she says. "Do you like school?"

"Yes!" Tom says. "I have a new friend. Her name is Mia. Tomorrow, I come again."

Tom smiles. He holds Mom's hand. They walk home by the river.

See you next time, Tom!
