My Neighbourhood

Reading My Neighbourhood My neighbourhood is a really lively place. There are small shops on every corner, and everyone seems to know each other. There’s a park right in the center where kids play soccer and adults have picnics. Across from the park is a library where my friends and I often do our homework. On weekends, the local market sets up, where you can find fresh fruits, vegetables, and handmade crafts. It’s fun to walk through and see all the different things. My favourite part of the neighbourhood is the old pizza place at the end of my street. The owner, Mr. Rossi, has been there for years and always makes the best pizza.  Overall, I love living here because it feels like a close-knit community where everyone looks out for each other. Writing Exercise: Imagine you are describing your own neighbourhood. Write a paragraph about it including the following points: 1. What kinds of places are in your neighbourhood (e.g., parks, shops, restaurants)? 2. How do people interact with
