We would like you to write a letter telling us all about yourself.

5. My Letter
Hello, my name is James. I like football but I don’t like swimming. I am 11 years old and live with my mum and my older brother, John. I wish I was older, then John wouldn’t pick on me so much. I wish my form tutor knew that some of the boys keep calling me names at break time, it makes me very sad and sometimes I cry at night because I don’t want to come to school. I am scared that mum will get ill and die because my dad doesn’t live with us any more. I like English and History best, I don’t like PE and Maths. Sometimes I need help with not getting distracted in class and sometimes I feel nervous around large groups of people. I am really good at spelling but sometimes I don’t understand the maths problems and am scared to ask for help in case the others think I’m stupid and tease me. The worst thing that ever happened to me was when my parents split up and my dad moved away. We still see him on some weekends but I miss him a lot. I wish I were cleverer like some of the other boys. When I grow up I want to be a policeman and help people.
