Write an essay “My favourite corner in the school. Where do you like to spend your time? Why?”

Most of all I like to spend time in the music studio. This is because there is a friendly atmosphere there, there is a comfortable sofa, and there is no noise as usual in a school. Unfortunately, you can’t go there whenever you want, but if I have a choice of where to spend my time, I’ll go there.

Write an essay titled “Educational camps in our school. Which camp do you prefer – summer or winter? Why? Tell about your favourite activity during the camps“

Educational camps in our school

I like both camps at our school, but I’ll probably prefer the winter one. I like the idea of ​​a camp that is no longer for travel and the various activities that we do there. I like camps because of the opportunity to see friends and acquaintances every day without a strict schedule and the need to go to specific classes. If outside the camp there are 5 minutes of recess and time after school for communication, which is not so convenient, then during the camp in 1st grade with the teacher and friends. And in general, the activities that you will engage in are also decided by you. That’s why I think camps are a very interesting and good thing. And they provide an early start to the semester and prepare for the school semester after the holidays.
