The Heroes that Inspire Us 2010

by Mrs. Nogueira's ESOL Students

Each year, we spend several months studying literary heroes such as Beowulf and cinematic heroes such as Marty McFly (from Back to the Future). Our unit always culminates with a focus on researching real-life heroes who have inspired us as individuals. These essays are in honor of those influential people.
