The Mango Tree in Our School
There are some trees in our school . Among them, there is a mango tree. The tree is in front of our classroom.
The mango tree is very old. Maybe , it is the oldest tree at the school. The trunk is very big. It takes two children with arms out stretched to completely circle it. Surprisingly, it still bears a lot of fruit. No wonder, when mango season comes , my friends and I get excited . We all like to come to school really early so we can pick all the good ones. Before going home, we can’t help taking a look at the mouth watering sight on the tree, hoping that we might climb it again the next day.
