Mrs Jones got an "Aging Booth" app on her phone. It turns a photo of someone into an old person. She took all our photos and after we stopped laughing at how funny we all looked we wrote some amazing stories about what life would be like if we were 100 years old. Here are a few stories (and all the "old" Room 12 students!!)
When I am 100 I will have short, light grey hair. I also won’t be able to speak as good as now. I will always have a long nana nap every afternoon. I will be in a slow wheelchair or have a brown walking stick. I might not be able to drive because I’m old. I will love to knit non-stop. I will have a lot of wrinkles. I will be deaf in one ear and I will need hearing aids. I will walk as slow as a turtle. I will have round glasses that sit on the bottom of my nose. I am not looking forward to being 100.
When I am 100 life would be different. I would have unclear speech. I would be deaf so I would need a hearing aid. I might need a zimmer-frame or a walking frame – maybe even a walking stick. I would probably need a pair of glasses but not sure about a walking cane. I would be bald or I would have grey hair and I would have wrinkles – maybe even white or black hair. I would probably have to live in a retirement home. I would not have a license but I would have a mobility scooter. I would be lazy and have a nana nap. I would walk slow but I would be fast if I had a wheelchair. My hobbies would be fishing, knitting, sleeping in and watching old-fashioned movies. I would have to have no wife or children. I would not be in the army. I would have new friends. I wish I was never 100.
When I am 100 I will be deaf and need a hearing aid. I will have a mobility scooter because I won’t be able to walk. I will sleep in every morning and have a nana nap every afternoon. I will have unclear speech and stop and start when I am talking. My hobby will be knitting. I will have my kids to look after me. I am going to be a grumpy Mum. I can’t wait to be 100.
When I am 100 I will have unclear speech because it will be very hard for me. I will live in a retirement home and I will need glasses. I will walk slow and I will have grey hair. I will be slow and I will have a nana nap in the afternoon every day. I will need a zimmer-frame to go everywhere. I will take it to the shops so I can get some milk and bread and eggs. I will need help to get up the stairs and get down.
