Read
Take your time. The important words are highlighted.
A routine is the group of things you do every day, in the same order.
Most days start in a similar way. First, you wake up and get out of bed. Then you get dressed and wash your face. Many people brush their teeth and eat breakfast. Breakfast is the first meal of the day, and it gives you energy for school or work.
Some people wake up early, at six o’clock. Other people wake up later. We are all different, but most of us have a morning routine that helps the day start well.
In the afternoon, students have classes and then go home. Many young people do their homework before they relax. Adults often work until five or six o’clock.
In the evening, families often have dinner together. Dinner is a good time to talk about your day. After dinner, you have some free time. You can read, watch a show, play a game, or talk with friends. Later, it is bedtime. Most teenagers go to sleep between nine and eleven o’clock.
Not everyone has the same routine. Some people are “morning people” — they feel awake and happy early in the day. Other people feel better at night. On weekends, many routines change: people wake up later and have more free time.
A good routine helps you. When you do things at the same time each day, you feel calm and you do not forget things. You sleep better too. You do not need a perfect routine — a simple one is enough.
