Batman: The Dark Knight Rises

"The Dark Knight Rises" is the conclusion of this trilogy of Batman movies and anyone who knows me, knows that I loved Batman growing up.

In this Batman series, Bruce Wayne gives up a tremendous amount to help Gotham. He endures physical pain and risks his life regularly. His “Bruce Wayne” reputation is one of a shallow billionaire, and he had to sacrifice his “Batman” reputation in the last movie.

How much would you be willing to give up to help your community? Think about small ways you could sacrifice to help other people in your day-to-day life. Could you sacrifice some of your free time as a volunteer or to be more involved in school? Could you sacrifice your reputation to befriend a classmate? Could you sacrifice some money or possessions to help the less fortunate?

List at least five ways you could sacrifice small things to help others.

Once you have posted your response, read the responses posted by your peers and reply thoughtfully to at least two other students.  Compliment strong points, make connections, ask questions and build on ideas shared!

  1. How much would you be willing to give up to help your community? Think about small ways you could sacrifice to help other people in your day-to-day life.

    Something I already do to help out is volunteer at the church for different dinners to help out. Also, I donate things, such as toys and coats, to the Salvation Army. Another thing that I do to help during the holiday season is donate food to the local food bank.

  4. 1. One thing I would do is sacrifice some of my free time to help out at school.
    2. I could sacrifice some of my free time to spend some money to give for those who don't have any or that much.
    3. Another thing I would do is to sacrifice some of my reputation to befriend a person.
    4. The second last thing I would do is to help poor people by sending them clothes and things like that.
    5. the last thing I'd do is set up a stand of some sort to sell things and then donate it to a charity or a research for cancer.

  11. I would give a lot to help my community but only enough to make everyone happy. yes I think you could do things like that to help your community. You could also donate things and give your time to help with something. yes would definatley sacrifice my reputation to befriend someone.Yes I would give Max of $50 to the less fortuanite or I would donate disposable food items. All-in-all I would be nowhere near Batman.
