My sister and I study at Washington Elementary School and we are plenty of homework to do every night before dinner. I’m not good at math but always get good grades at history and biology; my sister Anna always gets good grades at math and geography but hates biology. Every night before our favorite TV soap opera we help each other and after dinner we help Mom. I usually do the dishes and Anna cleans the kitchen while Mom irons our uniform and Dad’s shirt and suit. We plan on returning to Venezuela one day, but for now we’re just hoping a sunny day next weekend so we can go to the beach.
