CREATIVE WRITING STORY: TIME TRAVELLING
Time travel has always fascinated me. I would love to go back in time to witness some of the cool events from history. Well, now you get to.

3.) You all of a sudden appear at the bus stop next to Rosa Parks in 1955, right before she gets on the bus for her famous ride when she refuses to get up and move to the back of the bus for a white person. The bus is coming down the street...
4,) You all of a sudden appear on a boat sailing down the Nile River in ancient Egypt with Cleopatra. She hands you her cat...
5.) You all of a sudden appear on the island of Krakatoa on August 25th, 1883, one day before the most violent volcano eruption the world has ever known. You are sitting on a beach breaking coconuts with a native...
6.) You all of a sudden appear in Bergamo, Italy in 1897 in the middle of a meeting with Maria Montessori and some other Italians as they are talking about a new style of schooling. They ask you what you think of it, and they are all looking at you...
