This is me at school.

Oh hi! My name is Jr. I am a nine-year-old boy living in the colonies even before George Washington was president.

The things that I eat are stewed squirrel, stewed bear, boiled rabbit, deer meat, ham, and pigeon pudding. My dad goes hunting. Sometimes I go hunting with him.

The things that I wear are Banyan, long dresses, breeches, long gloves and mask, wig, and cap. When I was a baby, I wore long dresses. Now as a boy I wear breeches as my pants. If I were a rich kid, I would wear a wig.

These are the things that I use at school.

 

The things that I use at school are a Bible, a workbook, and good manners. We have desks and benches. All grades go in one class.

 

Bye, I have to go to school now.
