HALL OF HEROES A new museum is being opened. It is being
dedicated to five heroes who have changed the world. You and your classmates have been selected to decide which five people will be inducted into The Hall of Heroes.
Each person will choose one hero to nominate. Discuss your choice with your group and explain why you chose that person. Each group will vote to choose one hero from the nominees in your group. Keep voting until you reach a consensus (that means everyone agrees).

STEP 2 – PLOT OUTLINE
The students will use the mono-myth template to create an outline of the plot of their story.
The outline is intensive and will guide the students with questions that will help them create their hero’s journey.
One outline will be handed in for each group.

describing a setting (a Village, a Castle, Dark Forest) from a CHARACTER’S Point Of View.
