Welcome to your first online assignment Grade 6's!
Feel free to use any resource you would like to find the answer. However, you must work by yourself. Take your time and read the questions carefully. I want to try and eliminate all silly mistakes. :-)
I've tried to make things a little easier by embedded the quiz right into the blog. However, if you would like to see a full-screen version, just click this link.
Good luck!

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?
Or please visit the official site for the movie here: Dolphin Tale
I am looking forward to hearing your responses!

Future You
Think about what you will be doing in twenty years. Give me as many details as you can.
For example:
Where will you be living?
What will you be doing for a living?
What kind of car will you be driving?
What kind of house will you be living in?
Will you want to be married or still single?
And so on...
Please take your time and write thoughtfully. Don't forget about organizing your paragraphs and to double-check your spelling and grammar.

150 Word Story
I have enjoyed reading everyone's 100 word story so much that I have decided to do a part 2! However, this time you may use 150 words. Again...not 149. Not 151. One hundred and fifty exactly. :-)

Make sure you study the picture closely and let your imagination run wild! Be as creative as you can and don't forget to include the picture in your post! I look forward to reading what you come up with and make sure you check your spelling and grammar before you publish it!
Once this has been completed and posted on your blog, read and respond to at least 3 other people’s posts.
Good luck!
