Days of the week (My plans)

My name is Oleg. I am 11 years old and I live with my parents in a small town. Today I will tell you about my plans for a week.

As I’m in the fifth grade, from Mondays to Friday I have to go to school. Monday is the most difficult day for me, I am so lazy and tired on Monday.

On Tuesday I am very busy. After school I have to play music, after that I walk back home, have dinner and sit at my desk to do homework. It takes me 2 hours to finish my homework. After it I go to bed at 09 pm.

On Wednesday I'm not as busy as on Tuesday. I don’t have many lessons at school. I can do everything I want. On this day I often play football with my friends, help my Mother at home or go to the cinema.

Thursday is my favorite day of the week because I have two lessons of English at school. After school I also take extra English lessons with my tutor.

Friday is almost the same as Tuesday. Everything goes the same way but on Friday I can put off my homework till tomorrow.
