Fishing

Add to favorites
             In summer I and my dad went to the fishing. We went to river Pripyat. This river is very big. The weather was warm and sunny. But on the river were a lot of flyes. Fishing was very interesting. I cought a big pike. It weighed 1.40 kilos. On the fishing  we had alot of funny moments. But my favourite moment was about lizard. On this day all was as usuall. But sudenly  my dad called me and I saw brown lizard in his hands. Lizard tried to ran away but she couldnt do it. In the evening I let her go. Then I and my dad had a big fire on the bank of the river and  we ate fish which we cought on a day. We went to bed on 12 p.m. Before sleep I looked up into the sky. And I saw a lot of stars. I like my trip very much.

It's an interesting story, Nikita. It made me remember my summer time in the village too. Great days!
My tips:
1. I would recommend that you give it a better title. We can read "Fishing" and "lizard" on the content page, and we do not understand how these words are connected.
2. Remember: use "it" as a pronoun to refer to animals.
3. You should also proofread your text and stop translating from Russian. Remember the phrases you know to express your ideas.
I have corrected other mistakes in my letter. Please, read it and use my tips next time.

The total score for this text is 546 points and you will be awarded an ICAN Winner sticker next time.
