CREATE A TRAVEL BROCHURE

Congratulations!!! You and three of your classmates have just been chosen to be the founding fathers of a new company called "The Sky's the Limit." This company will be marketing a rare product, one which will be highly valued by all human beings who enjoy travelling, but don't have the time, resources, or perhaps the energy to research the area to which they would like to travel. You are not only going to entice the tourists of this world, but you are also going to have a hand in helping the tourism industry. Not only will this new position offer you the opportunity to work with your peers, it may also allow you to explore many areas of this planet that you have yet to see. Bon Voyage!!

ARTHUR AND THE INVISIBLES
Film Synopsis
Ten-year-old Arthur’s grandfather disappeared four years ago, leaving behind nothing but stories about invisible people less than half an inch tall. When Arthur discovers a hidden message he finds himself magically transformed into an Invisible, and given just 36 hours to recover a stolen treasure from the clutches of an evil wizard, win the heart of the princess, and somehow get back home again. It seems like an impossible task, but as he discovers along the way, sometimes the littlest heroes can make the biggest difference.

NEW TASK: DIALOGUE
Monday, January 19, 2009
NEW TASK: STRANGE TALES REPORT

How to Write a Book Report
Book reports are a way to show how well you understood a book and to tell what you think about it.
INTRODUCTION
Things to include in the introduction:
* The title (underlined) and author of the book.
* Why you chose the book.
* What kind of story is it? (adventure? family? fantasy/make believe? animal? true life? scary?)
BODY
In this section you want to describe the main parts of a story: theme, plot, setting, and characters. Then you can give your opinions about the book.
The Theme is the main idea of the story. Some examples might be the importance of friendship or how to be courageous in a difficult situation. Tell what you think the theme is and how you know.
The Setting is the time and place of the story. Is it set a long time ago or now. Does it take place in another country or in an imaginary place? How much time passes in the story—a day? a year? a lifetime?
The Plot is what happens. You want to tell what the story is mostly about. What is the main event or conflict? What things lead up to it? What happens as a result? How does the story end? (Sometimes you want to avoid telling the ending, or giving away the secrets of the story.)
Be careful not to re-tell the whole story in detail—you want room in your report to write about other things; instead, just say enough about it so the rest of your report will make sense.
The Characters are who the story is about. The main character is called the protagonist. Who are the other important characters? Do they help or hinder the protagonist?
Once you have summarized the book, you can tell what you think about it. You can write about whatever opinions you have. Some questions you might want to answer are:
* Did you like the story? Why or why not?
* What was the best part of the book? Why?
* How did the story make you feel? Did you feel different things at different points in the story?
* Would you recommend it to friends?
* Would you read other books by this author?
* What new things did you learn from this book?
CONCLUSION
This is just a sentence or two to sum up your report. Give your overall opinion of the book and the most important thing you want other people to know about it.
Don´t forget to add a picture to your task!
