Our Story - Timeline of Student Heroes
1. Students choose a hero who they would like to feature in the Our Story Timeline.
2. Questions are selected from the Question Sets provided at Our Story - http://www.ourstory.com/q_a.html
3. These are copied and pasted onto a Word Document so answers can be recorded.
4. Their heroes stories and related pictures (if any) are inserted into the timeline at the time of its occurrence with the student's first name for identification. This means one student may have several entries on the timeline.

If I had influence with the good fairy who is supposed to preside over the christening of all children, I should ask that her gift to each child in the world be a sense of wonder so indestructible that it would last throughout life.
