It’s the holidays at your house, which means your mom tells you she needs you to grab the decorations from the attic. After all, you’re the only one who can easily slide through the small little door in the ceiling. And you actually enjoy climbing ladders.

So you climb up and dig around the attic, turning over old lampshades and dusty boxes in search of the decorations. Then–aha! A shiny bin in the back catches your eye! It’s a little far out of reach, and you stretch your hand a little further, balancing on your tiptoes, almost there…

Then, CRASH! Books and sheet music, mildewy coats and bedsheets all come falling down, along with…a journal? Whose could it be? And how old is it?

You pick it up and dust off the cover…

Due Date:

Objective: Create a journal entry that expresses another person’s POV, either historical or recent.
