Dear Emma,
Hi! My name is Yael, and I am your new pen pal. I am
eleven years old, and I live in Be'er Sheva, a city in the
south of Israel. It is very hot here in the summer, and it
does not rain very much.
I live with my parents and my two brothers, Itay and Omer.
Itay is fifteen, and Omer is six. We have a big brown dog. His
name is Choco, because he is the colour of chocolate!
I am in the fifth grade. My favourite subjects are art and
English. I don't like maths very much, because it is hard for
me. After school, I go to a dance class on Mondays and
Wednesdays. On weekends, I ride my bike in the park with my
friends.
What about you? What do you like to do after school? Do
you have any pets? Please write back soon and send me a photo
of your town.
Your new friend, Yael
