Best friends are hard to come by. You should meet my best friend Paulo. He is awesome. First of all Paulo is very active.  He plays a lot of sports. He is very good at football and tennis.  He is in a football club and goes away to football camp every summer. We play tennis together. We take lessons on Saturday mornings and on Sundays we get together and play.  Paulo is also very cheerful.  He is always in a good mood.  He starts every day with a smile.  He likes everyone in school and everyone at school likes him.  He is never moody and you can count on him to be positive. Another positive thing about Paulo is that he is funny. He makes everyone laugh and keeps us all in a good mood.  For example one week he wore a different pair of glasses each day to school. One day they were black another they were red.  The funny is that Paulo doesn’t even need glasses. 

Paulo is different from me in many ways.

Practice paragraph:


My birthday is my favourite day of the year. Every year I have a party and invite all my friends. They bring me loads of gifts and help me celebrate.  I have a big cake. I can eat as much cake as I want on that day. My parents treat me special that day and I love them for it. I wish every day was my birthday.
