Wednesday

Today is Wednesday! We usually wear the scout uniform. I arrived at school at 6:00 am. After waiting 30 minutes, the bell rings at 6:30 am. There are six lessons on Wednesday. Like usual, before we study all the students pray according to their own religion. And then, the first lesson is ICT (Information and Communication Technologies). We study like usual. But sometimes there are shadow teachers for Physics, Biology, and Math on Wednesday so we don’t study ICT. Shadow teachers are teachers from other countries. We must speak English to them because they don’t understand Indonesian. The shadow teachers will improve our English speaking.

The second lesson is Biology! This is my favorite lesson. The teacher is Mr. Maher. The subject now is about the movement of plants. The teacher is also a great teacher and I like it.

The third lesson is math. We study math like usual.

The fourth lesson is Social Science. Mrs. Ika tells us stories, that's why all the students in my class are approaching her. She always tell us interesting stories hahaha.
