The Chores List
Here is a chores list for the Green family. Everyone in the family has something to do to keep the house clean and tidy.
Mr. Green usually mows the lawn on weekends. It makes the garden look nice. He also takes out the rubbish every evening.
Mrs. Green does a lot of housework. She cooks meals every day. After meals, she washes the dishes. She also irons the clothes and cleans the rooms regularly.
Their son, Jack, is 12 years old. He is responsible for making his bed every morning. He also helps to feed the pet dog and take it for walks. Sometimes, he sweeps the floor.
Their daughter, Lucy, is 10 years old. She has to set the table before meals and clear the table after meals. She also waters the plants in the house to keep them healthy.
