My Favorite Day

 My Favorite Day

                                                by Veronica Ware, student sample work

My favorite day is when I get to go swimming in our pool. After I finish my work, I can go outside to play. 

First, I play with my ball. Then, I ride on my bike. When I am hot, I jump in the pool and swim. I like to dive to the bottom of the pool and then swim up. I make sure that I hold my breath when I swim so I would not drown. 

My mom does not let me stay in the pool too long. When I rest, I can go back into the pool. I like it best when my mom watches me do tricks in the water. Sometimes, we swim together and have a race. I have a good time. I wish that summer would never end.
