If I Was President...

Today, we wrote in our journals. What we write changes each week. Sometimes it will go with a holiday, something going on at school, the weather, anything that might come up. Since President's Day was Monday, I decided to take advantage of the topic. Our journal starter was "If I was president, I would..." The students had to finish the sentence and then write two more about what they would do if they were president. They came up with some of the funniest things. Many of them wrote about how they would eat cookies all day. Some would eat popcorn. Many of them wrote about watching movies all day and staying up late each night. It was so funny and I could tell the kids had a good time with it too.
