Write On MEP 1/13 Writing Unit 1: All About Me

All About Me Unit 1 My name is Simon. I am eleven years old and I am an only child. I was born in France because my mother is French, but now I live in Canada, not France. I visit France every summer to see my grandparents, who still live there, in the house my mother grew up in. I like visiting my grandparents because we speak French together. In France, I often play soccer with my cousins. It’s my favorite sport. I have a lot of cousins, so we can make teams to play against each other. I also like visiting my grandparents because they live near the ocean. There’s a lot of fun stuff to do there. We swim, snorkel, and play in the sand. I think my life is pretty good, and I feel very fortunate.
