JOURNAL TOPIC: [today's tunes: "My Hero" by the Foo Fighters; "Heroes" by David Bowie]
Heroes are essential to humanity. Every culture throughout history has
chronicled their exploits. Today their role is more important than
ever; heroes inspire us to think differently, act differently, and
ultimately become better versions of ourselves. Even though everyone
gets the general idea of a hero, the people we admire are as
individual as we are. They may have impressive personalities,
intellects or physical attributes; they may be ordinary people who do
extraordinary things; they may be public or private. They may
even be our friends and relatives.
Write a letter to someone you consider to be a hero. Explain to this
person why s/he is heroic and tell the person how s/he has moved or
inspired you.
AGENDA:
1. Journal
2. Tangerine
*As we reach the end of the book, think about the theme/s so that you can write about them and we can discuss.
