Hello, my name is Frederick. I am from the Comox Valley, I’m here because of my soccer. This is my second year at Brookes and am so far loving it here. My biggest interests are athletics (soccer, basketball, running, tennis) and traveling to different places around the world.
While I was on vacation I was reading a book called the Wealthy Barber and a book about Barcelona’s football club. I am not the biggest reader to be honest, but when I’m in a good book it’s hard for me to put down. The books that I enjoy reading are biographies on people that are successful. This school year I want to read at least 15 minutes a day. If I can do this I believe that I will be able to read quicker because right now I’m a little slow. When I’m reading if I don’t understand something I will reread the page until I understand.
As a writer I think that my writing is very organized and neat. However, this is a great opportunity for me to develop a sense of using more complex words in my writing. Sometimes when I write I will go on and on without stopping, so I need to add more periods when writing. I am very excited for this years English class and hope to do great things.
