Brilliant Narration

The first time I saw this video, I thought it was priceless! I laughed at the antics and the "crazy" behaviour of a guy we have probably all known at one point in our lives. Then I watched again and paid attention to the narration he used to explain the collective behaviour of the people who surround him.

Although I know some people would not see the value in this one, I would love to hear what you think about it.

The Death Crawl

I have seen this video so many times and I never tire of it. I think one of the things I like best about it is that it can be appreciated through so many different perspectives; through the eyes of the coach, the eyes of one of the players, or even through the eys of one of the assistant coaches who watch a master at work.

I love the way this coach teaches this player a very powerful lesson with a firm but gentle activity that makes the player appreciate what he has learned rather than feel that he has been humiliated or treated unfairly. The whole point of the lesson is that the coach had a great deal of admiration for the potential he knew this player had and rather than scolding him, he helped him see that this potential can have a very positive influence on others.

What an amazing role model he was!

Poetry - a few examples

OK, this is something new for me. I teach poetry, but I don't usually write any of my own. This year, I have had so many changes in my life and I have been swimming in my own thoughts. Tonight, while I enjoyed one of my last nights of running for the year, the poems wove themselves through my brain. It was so impiring, I even hit a personal best with my running time.

These are the first poems I have ever shared with my students. Click on the links below to read them. I hope that they live up to the lessons I have taught you about the craft of poetry so far. I would love to hear what you think. Please feel free to leave comments.

Les cavernes

La deuxième vidéo est terminée. Nous avons découvert les cavernes du monde. Pour ceux parmi nous qui ont un peu peur des espaces enfermées, on a bien fait de visionner de la sécurité de la salle de classe...

Les notes sont dans le lien ci-dessous. J'ai aussi attaché les critères de nouveau. Prenez le temps de relire ce document. Il vous donnera possiblement des idées pour ajouter des faits et des opinions à votre document de réflexion. N'oublie pas que dans une réflexion, je veux voir les questions que tu te poses et les pensées que tu as vis-à-vis notre Terre naturelle, à la fois forte et fragile.
