Airborn Trilogy - Kenneth Oppel

Having just finished reading the  "Airborn" Trilogy think of at least two questions you would like to ask Mr. Kenneth Oppel.  Be creative and try not to ask him something he may have been asked several times before.  To make sure you don't do this, check out the "Frequently Asked Questions" section of his website.  

When you think you have at least two (2) well thought out questions, please post them on the class "Wallwisher"  found below.

Or you could use the following QR code.   For those that have the capability to read this, please let me know if it worked.  Thank-you.

Dolphin Tale - Finding Inspiration

The movie Dolphin Tale is based on a true story.  In fact, Winter, the dolphin in the movie, is the actual dolphin who lost her tail.

I would like you to watch the trailer of the movie and then answer the following questions:

1.  How can this story of survival and people coming together to do the impossible inspire you?

2.  What is an obstacle in your life that seems impossible? What can you do to try to overcome that obstacle?

3.  As you can see from Dolphin Tale, they have to reach out to others and ask for help to make their goal a reality.  Who can you ask for help?

If the above one doesn't work, please try this one:



Or please visit the official site for the movie here: Dolphin Tale

I am looking forward to hearing your responses!
