This is for you and anyone else who uses Teacher Tube.
Which I want to start using myself in my school as much as possible.
We can't access YOUTUBE and I'm fine with that.
I do want to let you and everyone else know, that not only am I a teacher, but I am a coach in the building as well.
Is there anyway we could get some great quality videos of athletic role-models??
And in particular a fan favorite and one of my own favorites>>
Walter Payton of the Chicago Bears????
I think as teachers>>
Excellent role-models and/or positive athletes could also be very beneficial.
Thanks>
A SINCERE THANKS>

I recently heard a Master History Teacher speak about the need to re-discover the biography and thereby expose students to those who have overcome adversity, worked hard, and accomplished goals. Video biographies of some athletes could be a great way to do this. Hopefully, your call will be heard and community members will post some vids on athletic role-models.
