A Day in the Life of an Italian Student

Hello, my name is Riccardo and I attend the third year at "P. Tacchi Venturi" school. This is my typical school day. In the morning I get up  at 7.00, I have breakfast at 7.15, I wash my face, I get dressed and at 7.45 I go to school by car. My friends go to school by bus or they walk. We wait in the hall and then we go into the class at 8.15. In the morning we have six lessons of fifty minutes each.

These are the subjects we study:
