Playing a team sport with a brother or sister

Liam

I play football in the same team as my brother, Ben. He is two years older than me. Ben is our team captain, so he always tells us what to do on the pitch. Sometimes I think he shouts at me too much! But he is a great player, and I learn a lot from him. I really love playing in a team with him. I hope we can play together for the same club when we are adults.

Chloe

My little sister and I play basketball for our school. She only started playing last year, so I always show her how to throw the ball. She is getting much better now. Some players get very sad when the team loses a match. My sister and I are not like that. We just love running around and getting some exercise. For us, playing a sport with friends is more important than winning.

Noah

I play volleyball with my twin brother, Lucas. We look exactly the same, so the other team often gets confused! We both love winning. If we lose a game, we feel terrible. Because we are brothers, we sometimes shout at each other during a match. We can get quite angry! But after the game finishes, we are always best friends again. Our dad is the coach, so he tells us to stop arguing and play!

At the end of the day, you can take your wonderful painting home to put on your bedroom wall!

      Choosing a movie

      Lucas

      My friend and I went to the cinema last Saturday. I wanted to watch a new action film. However, my friend wanted to see a film about animals. We stood in the cinema and talked for a long time. We couldn't agree! Finally, I called my older brother and asked him to choose for us. He told us to watch a cartoon. I didn't want to watch it at first. But the story was great, and I actually loved it!

      Ben

      I went to the cinema with my best friend yesterday. I really love scary films, but he hates them. He wanted to watch a true story about a famous singer. We argued about it for twenty minutes outside the cinema. We couldn't decide what to watch. In the end, we didn't buy any tickets. We just bought some big boxes of popcorn and walked back to my place. We watched a football match on television there. It was a fun evening anyway!

      Sam

      Last weekend, my friend and I wanted to see a science fiction film. I love space adventures! But my friend said no because he watched it the day before. He already knew everything about the story. We decided to watch a funny film instead. We stood outside the cinema and tried to agree for a long time. Because of this, we walked into the dark cinema late. We didn't see the first ten minutes! But we still laughed a lot.
