1915

Amelia Bertrand, 9
Haisley Elementary

In 1915 life was really hard. My house was very small like every other house. I have to share a room with my two older brothers. I do not like that. My school is also very small. The whole school shares one classroom in all the grades. The older kids in the school sit in the back and the younger kids sit in the front. It is very cramped. The clothes I wear are usually a dress. Sometimes I like dresses but sometimes I do not. I usually take a bike or a horse to school or a wagon and a carriage. Some of my favorite games are tag or hide and go seek. But my dress always gets in the way. The most hardest thing is all the work you have to do for your mom and dad. That is the life of 1915.
