We went to a website and had to read about five different people and I chose the upper class girl. She has a great life let me tell you about it. she lived in a two story house with a yard, had a private tutor , a bicycle,roller skates and a tennis court, last she didn't have any chores she had people who did them for her. She also lived in Lake Forest, Illinois which is really close to where I live now. That is why I would choose to do the upper class girl!!

If I lived back in the 1900's I would rather be the upper-class girl. I would have a big two story house and I would have no chores to do! I would have a bike, roller skates and a tennis court! I wouldn't have to go to school either! I would be home-schooled by a tutor. Life would be mostly easy, and I wouldn't have many things to worry about in life that most people in the 1900's had to face in life! This is why I would like to be the upper-class girl!!!

If I were to be any nineteenth century, person, I would be the Upper Class Girl. I would be her because you wouldn't have to do chores, you were to live in a two story house, with a yard, you would get to roller skate, play lawn tennis, and bike around, and you were very wealthy, so you could afford lots of toys, etc.

I would be the upper class girl because she get a large two story house with a yard that she could play games with her parents if they want to . She would have no chores to do around the house that her parent wants her to do in the house. She get to do games like roller skating, lawn tennis and ride a bike around her yard but not aloud to go out of her yard. She had a little school time she get to work with a tutor on your lesson time.

If I were to pick out of the four people I would pick the upper class girl.
My reason for choosing the upper class girl is because she has a big family and normal life. She lives with her mother, her father, and her two sisters in a two story house with a big yard. She lives in lake forest Illinois right near Chicago City. She doesn't have to work hard, or do chores and she has time to play with her friends to! She works with a tutor on your school lessons. Her family lives in a Wealthy and Fashionable small town with a normal and perfect life!!
That is why I would want to be the upper class girl!

I would be the upper class person because they seemed to have a perfect life because they would have a two story house with a yard and they would have a good education, the best part would be you get to play in your own yard and your own toys. The cool part would be you don't have any chores and you would have like your own cook and stuff like that.
I think personally people would choose the upper class person because they seem to get whatever they want, they also get a great education and they don't have any work to do and they have people that do chores around the house so I think the upper class person is the best.

I would want to the upper class girl because she has a lot of cool toys and other cool things and her own tutor. I would really like to be a upper class girl because you wouldn't have to do any chores. The upper class girl gets more than I get and normally when I think of somebody from the 1900's I think they would not be as rich as me. It would be fun to be a upper class girl=http://!!!!

Our teacher told us to look at a bunch of these different boys and girls. I found a favorite and decided to write about it. When I looked at the Upper-Class Girl, I saw that she was fit for me! She had a two-story house with a yard and had no chores to do! She had a private tutor, a bicycle, a tennis court and roller skates! I would like to be her. You get all the cheap seats in the plane and comfy cushions to sleep on. A servant would come to your command if you say, "I need help!" It would be fun to be an upper-class girl!
