Post #74: National Superhero Day

NATIONAL SUPERHERO DAY

National Superhero Day is observed annually on April 28.  This is a day to honor superheroes, both real and fictional.
Batman, Superman, Captain America, Wonder Woman, Iron Man, Hulk and Spiderman are just some of the superheroes whose names we recognize.  Even though they are fictional, these superheroes are great role models for our children.  They serve and protect while fighting evil.
Our real-life superheroes may not have super powers or wear capes, but they are also great role models who serve and protect while fighting evil.  Military personnel, police officers and firefighters are just a few of the heroes who protect us on a daily basis. 
Who is your superhero and why?
NO assignment today... You may have free time after you are done with your blog.

Blog #71: Book/movie adaptations




Last year at this time The Jungle Book movie came out, but many of you might not know that it was actually originally a novel by Rudyard Kipling and not an animated movie by Walt Disney. Today you will be writing about your favorite movie that was originally from a book or novel that YOU HAVE READ. Tell me a little about the story, why you enjoyed it, what were the parts from the book you were happy they either kept or took out, and some ways in which the movie was different than the book. Is there a movie coming out this year that is from a book you have read that you are looking forward to? Please include images of the book cover as well as the movie poster.
