today we got reading ... we finished Chapter 4 in the novel.
"it's ok to be jealous of your friends ..." line was discussed. I gave an example from my own life with a university buddy of mine, Dr. Geordie Rose. He was a teammate of mine back at McMaster in the early 90's and has gone on to do fairly well for himself.
At one point in time, we were asked about what we thought about what a game of Blitzball might look like. I did have a few suggestions:
Kabaddi
WheelChair Rugby
and Able Bodied Rugby, too
We watched a bit of them today. Interesting to see if any one of my students takes these sports up in any interest.
I'm not sure how, but we also mentioned Kelly Slater's new business, too. Watch this:
Kelly's Wave from Kelly Slater Wave Co on Vimeo.
We also saw the start of the 2004 film version of the book. I doubt we'll have time to see that during class time, but it's at least there.
I did also suggest a few ideas about the Culminating Activity in the class today.
