Back to School
The Hero Construction Company will be visiting schools every day in the first half of September as kids and teachers head back to school.The Hero Kids blog is on a break, which may turn into something permanent. However, if you, the readers, want it to start up again, just submit a comment here. We’d be happy to keep things going if people were getting value out of it.
Thanks for reading and please check out the Hero Workshop website.
Hello everyone!
This week marks the return of Indiana Jones to the silver screen with the fourth installment; Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.
The film is set 19 years later in 1957, accounting for the gap between the third film and this one. meantime, here is Indy’s hero’s journey from the first film, Raiders of the Lost Ark.
Hope you enjoy the movie!
Hello everyone!
Today’s hero’s journey is Mulan, a Disney character from the movie by the same name. She disguises herself as a man in the army in order to save her father from being hurt.
Mulan learns many things on her journey, most meaningful being that family is more important than anything. She saves the Emperor and brings honor to her family.
Hello everyone!
Today is Florence Nightingale’s birthday. It is also International Nurses Day, honoring Nightingale and all other nurses around the world.
Florence was born into a wealthy family but instead of using her status doing something high-profile like her family wanted her to, she became a pioneer of modern nursing. She became known as The Lady In Chief for the way she cared for the soldiers during the Crimean War.
Hello Everyone!
With Mother’s Day in mind, our Hero’s Journey of this week will be Helen Parr, otherwise known as Elastigirl and Mrs. Incredible.
Mrs. Incredible can stretch every part of her body and is extremely flexible. She marries Mr. Incredible right before the government makes all the superheroes go into hiding. They have three children: Violet, Dash, and Jack-Jack.
She is an amazing mother and cares for her children very much and helps save her husband when he gets capture by Syndrome.
Hello Everyone!
Mother’s Day is coming up, this Sunday to be exact. Most people use this day to honor their mother’s for all the work they do and all they give up for their children. I know my mom is a hero of mine and I’m certain that at least a majority of you feel the same way.
Mom’s can inspire us to do great things or simply help us realize that they’ll always be there for us. I want all of you to think about your mother or the motherly figure in your life and write down all of their heroic traits. Writing these down may help you realize how important and amazing they are.
Don’t forget to thank them and give them a hug either!
Hello Everyone!
Well, tonight’s the night I’m going to see Iron Man. After I see the movie, I will write up the hero’s journey for Tony Stark (a.k.a. Iron Man) and post it in here.
Hello everyone!
This Friday is the opening weekend for the movie Iron Man. I’m incredibly excited because I love this character and I’ve always been a fan of comics in general.
So in honor of the movie coming out this week, I wanted to write up a profile for Tony Stark, the man who invented the suit to become the technologically advanced superhero, Iron Man.
Sit tight for the hero’s journey of Tony Stark from the movie once I see it!
Hello everyone!
Well, as you’ve probably noticed…we’ve gone through all the 11 heroic traits. So, from now on, on Thursdays I’ll be writing about a hero’s journey.
If you have any other suggestions about what you want to see on the blog, please feel free to comment!
