These days famous people announce their daily adventures so their fans can keep up with their
every action. They call it “tweeting” their fans. Essentially, they are giving their fans a daily timeline.
Each tweet has the date and time with an under 140 character message next to it. Imagine if some
of the people we have discussed in class tweeted their experiences. What would they say? What
would a day in his/her life be like?
Requirements:

In this assignment you are going to enter 3 days of tweets for a famous person that you have
researched. Each tweet should have a picture of the person.

Use the template provided to put the name of the person, his/her title in society and his/her
geographical location at the top of the page.

You should have 1 tweet (less that 140 character entries) per day.

Each day should have the date and time next to the text or post.

Use your research and imagination to detail his/her daily life.

Monday, July 3, 1384, 8:00 AM
I am concerned because I hung out
with Nancy at her stable yesterday
and she has woken up with the
chills. It could be the plague!
Monday, July 3, 1384, 10:00 AM
Oh no! I am getting the chills! I think
I am going to stay home today.
Monday, July 3, 1384, 12:00 AM
Nancy’s mom just told me she has a
had a fever all night. I am feeling hot
too.
Monday, July 3, 1384, 8:00 AM
Over half of my town has already
died from the plague this year! I am
going to stay strong! Pray for me.
