Two Truths and a Lie

Conley Gibson

Today is the Fourth of July. We are going to the State Fair. The first thing we do there is go to the petting zoo. They have a turkey there. I get to pet it. 

After we get back from the State Fair, we go to our friend’s house. Since my birthday is on July 7th, we get to celebrate my birthday early. I get to eat cake, but our friend’s dog eats it from my lap. 

Next we go see fireworks. A firework shoots onto their roof and catches the house on fire. 

Pretty cool, right? Try to guess my two truths and a lie.

Two Truths and a Lie

Make a list consisting of three things about yourself, but there’s a catch: two of the items on the list need to be the truth while the third item is a lie. Be creative with a lie. Don’t say “I broke my arm last week,” when there’s no sign of a cast or a sling. Think of something that is true and change just the slightest portion of it to make it a lie. When you’re done, share! Ask the rest of the group to guess what the lie was.
