For One Day

Mrs. Palmer went to the Phillies game and the Phillies and their coaches were asked, "If you could be someone else for one day, who would you be?"

The Middle School group was asked the same question...here is what they said,

"I would want to be Miley Cyrus"
"Charlie Brown"
"Prince Charles"
"I would want to be Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus"
"Peyton Manning"
"Miley Cyrus"
"My dog Colin"
"A dog"
"I would want to be a homeless person to see how hard they have to struggle. Then I know how we can help them."
"My dog"
"Hannah Montana"
"Vanessa Anne Hudgens"

Then she asked the group if they heard of "The Diary of a Whimpy Kid"
Imagine you are now authors if you were going to write a book "The Diary of..." what would the title be? Also write a sentence like you would put in the diary..."Today I..." Here is what the children said...
