Late for school

Sam was late for school.

It was his first day at his new school in Stockholm.

The school was big and old.

It was full of stairs and big windows.

late sen stairs trappor windows fönster

Sam found his classroom.

The door was closed.

He knocked at the door.

‘Yes?’

It was his teacher, Mrs. Jensen. Her voice sounded kind.

‘It’s me, Sam’, he said.

‘The new kid.

I’m a bit late, sorry’.

The door opened.

‘Don’t worry, Sam’, said Mrs. Jensen.

‘We were just getting started. Take a seat. You can sit next to Matilda’.

found hittade knocked knackade teacher lärare voice röst kind snäll, vänlig take a seat sätt dig ner

She pointed at a girl with long, dark hair.

The girl smiled at him. Sam smiled back.

Then he tripped and almost fell over a football.

pointed at pekade på tripped snubblade fell ramlade

‘Liam!’ said Mrs. Jensen.

‘How many times have I told you not to bring your football into the classroom?

Leave it with me, please.

You may have it back after school’.

‘Alright’.

Liam gave the ball to his teacher.

Sam walked up to Matilda. ‘Hi, Sam’, said the girl.

‘I’m Matilda.

And that’s my brother, Liam’.

Sam looked at Matilda.

She had big, dark eyes.

She is wise, he thought to himself. Definitely wise.

bring ta med leave lämna

wise klok, vis thought tänkte

He always did that, thinking to himself. He couldn’t help it. And when he saw Matilda, he felt that she was the same.

Perhaps they could be friends? He could use a friend.

‘Here’, Matilda said.

‘You can look in my book if you like’.

‘Thanks’, he whispered.

Maybe it will be okay, he thought to himself. Maybe it won’t happen again.

maybe kanske won't kommer inte felt kände perhaps kanske

The map room

‘Time for a group project’, said Mrs. Jensen.

‘The topic is Save the planet’.

‘We’d better start right now’, someone said from the back of the classroom.

‘We’re already a bit late, you know’.

Sam looked around. The girl talking had black hair and round glasses.

She was holding a small toy cat in her hands.

‘You’re right, Zelda’ said Mrs Jensen.

‘We should start right away.

You can work with Matilda and Sam’.

‘Why don’t you go find a place to sit?’

Mrs. Jenson continued, ‘Somewhere quiet.’

‘I know just the place’, Matilda said.

should borde place plats

continued forsatte quiet tyst

‘So, where are we going?’ Sam said.

He followed the two girls up the stairs.

The school looks like a museum, he thought. Or maybe Hogwarts.

followed följde efter thought tänkte

‘We’re going to the map room’, said Matilda.

‘It’s super old, no one uses it.

But I like it there’.

‘You have an English accent’, Sam said.

‘You sound like Hermione from Harry Potter’.

‘My mum is English, and my dad used to live in London’, she said.

We speak a lot of English at home.

Do you have English family, too?’

‘No’, he said.

‘But my mums wanted me to go to an international school.

We’ve been moving a lot.

What about you?’ he said and looked up at Zelda.

‘My dad’s from the Caribbean’, said Zelda.

‘I speak English with him and Swedish with my mum’.

‘That must be cool’, said Sam.

‘Well’.

Zelda started stroking the toy cat.

‘Who’s that?’ he said.

‘His name is Gizmo’, said Zelda.

‘He keeps me calm. I need him.

I know, cuddly toys are not cool, right?’

stroking klappa calm lugn cuddly toys gosedjur

‘No!’ said Sam.

‘I have lots of cuddly toys at home. Maybe I can bring one of them to school, too’.

Zelda looked at him.

But she didn’t say anything.

Everytime you see this symbol it means you listen to the chapter online.

The wind was warm.

At least it’s not cold, he thought. Liam liked warm weather.

Liam also liked football, tacos, and hanging out with his friends.

He sniffed.

There was a smell in the air, he thought.

The smell of mud and water.

There was another smell too, warm and salty.

Could it be …?

No. No way.

‘Sis?’ he said.

‘Is that chips I can smell?’

‘I think so’, she said.

‘Liam, you need to open your eyes.

I think I can see Big Ben down there!

I think we’re in London!’

‘What?!’

Liam opened his eyes. He didn’t understand what was happening.

One minute, they had been in the map room, playing with the globe. And now …

Now everything was dark again.

Liam grabbed his sister’s hand and screamed.

Finally, Mrs. Kernick spoke again.

‘I have something to tell you.

Now, I don’t want you to be scared, but ...’

Matilda and Liam listened to what Mrs Kernick had to say. Then they dropped their plates to the floor.

Let’s Read: Kevin’s Journal

Hi, guys! I want to tell you about what I do every day.

In the morning, I wake up early and get ready for school. I eat breakfast with my dad. He works from home, so he makes me breakfast. Next, I get dressed. I wear my favorite shirt every day. The last thing I do in the morning is to feed Bucky. Sometimes I forget, and dad gets mad. Then he feeds Bucky for me, so don’t worry!

I take a yellow bus to school. It picks me up from the corner. My friend Jason takes the same bus, and we sit together in the back. He sits in the window seat, and I sit next to him.

At school, I have a class meeting first. We listen to the school news on the speakers, and we say the pledge of allegiance. Then, our class has math and English. Then it is time for the best part of the day – lunch! We eat our lunch in our classroom, at our desks. Jason’s mom packs his lunch for him.

We have recess and play on the playground. I love to play wall ball during recess. We have three more classes after lunch.

After school, my mom picks me up and takes me to karate class. After karate, I go home and do my homework. My brother helps me a lot with my math homework. My sister, Jasmine, likes to help me with my English homework.

In the evening, I help my parents cook dinner. I make pasta, rice, hamburgers, and lots of other things. We eat dinner together and talk about our day.

At night, I have a routine to get ready for bed. I go to the bathroom, take a shower, brush my teeth, and wash my face. I put on my pajamas and get into bed. I listen to stories to help me fall asleep.
