Japanese help please?

So I finally started learning Japanese and my teacher gave me some homework to do in the workbook and that was ok but she also gave me a few questions to write in my notebook and answer and I am not very sure about them since I only started learning Japanese 2 weeks ago .Here are the questions and the answers I wrote:

1.What time did you get up ?

いちじです。( 1 o'clock )

2.what did you eat for dinner yesterday ?

ぱんけえきをたべました。( i ate pancakes )

3.where did you go yesterday ?

わたしはづばいもおるにいきました。( I went to dubai mall )

Are they right ?

    Yes, they are correct.

    But Japanese is a pronoun-drop language, so mentioning the pronouns usually isn't necessary, if it isn't always dropped.

    So for the third answer: It should be ドバイモールにいきました。 Dubai Moru ni ikimashita.

    And the "Dubai Mall" part should be in katakana, as they are borrowed words, not originally Japanese words.

    They're ok, but "pancakes" and "dubai mall" should be written in katakana, but maybe you haven't learned it yet so it's fine.

    However, you mispelled "dubai". The right spelling is:

    ドバイ (katakana)

    どばい (hiragana)

    All are right but I suggest the use of Katakana for the appropriate words.

    2)

    パンケーキをたべました。

    3)

    （わたしは）ドバイモールにいきました。
