Video Clips to Watch!

SuperSize Me: http://www.snagfilms.com/films/title/super_size_me

This video shows the importance of being healthy and eating healthy. In showing the progress of having nothing but a diet of McDonalds, it shows the severe decrease in the testers health. This would be great to use in a Health and Nutrition class. Students would get to see first hand how processed food negatively effects our bodies. This would also open up discussion for what food is healthy for us instead.

Remember the Titans: http://youtu.be/mWJs2Gof538

This is a collection of inspirational moments from the movie Remember the Titans. This is extremely powerful when used in any coaching setting. It shows the importance of team unity and dedication. It creates a strong bond between the team and ignites inspiration. This would allow great discussion in the classroom/locker room on how they would handle certain situations. You could also use it as a comparison on how to implement the different topics discussed into your own team.

Michael Jordan- Failure: http://youtu.be/cQ1nHzWxdaY

This 30 second commercial would be useful in any classroom, but again especially in a coaching setting. It shows one of America's most successful athletes, Michael Jordan, talking about how many times he's failed. In the end, he states that because of each of these failures, it is why he has succeeded. It brings up discussion on perserverance and how our students should never give up on their dreams. It also shows how we can turn negatives into postives and not focus on the bad, but use it as inspiration for the good.
