This is a part of stories about family life. We interviewed two middle school students, John and Nancy, about their weekend chores. They told us about the chores they did last weekend.
He didn't like doing the laundry, but he enjoyed cleaning the car with water. "I listened to music and sang my favorite songs while I worked," he said.
Nancy had to go to the store and buy breakfast food for the family on Saturday morning. Her mother usually goes with her, but this Saturday morning she went with her sister. "I liked shopping for food. I bought things I like to eat and my parents paid for them." On Sunday morning she had to take out the trash, and then took their dog for a walk in a park. She liked the dog a lot.
John and Nancy both liked helping with their parents' yard sale at weekends. "I liked talking to all the people," said John. Nancy said, "My parents gave me part of the money. Now I can buy anything I want."
