Katie’s Autobiography

My name is Mohammed and I am 11 years old. I was born in Dubai. When I was a baby I drank from a bottle. My mom took good care of me. When I started to grow, my little sister was born. Our bedroom was filled with toys. Then, I started Kindergarten. I learned a lot. My teacher was very nice and taught me how to read. Next, I went to first grade. First grade is a little harder, but I am still learning a lot. My best friend is Moayed. He’s really funny. We like to play tag at recess. I like my teacher this year because he reads us stories. My favorite subject is reading. I read lots of books. My favorite one is called “Diary of a Spider.” My favorite color is purple and my favorite thing to do is sing. I live with my mom, my dad, and my sister. We go on walks together around the neighborhood. After school I always eat a snack. When I grow up, I want to be a doctor just ike my dad.
