Jason McElway - A Basketball Hero

A former student shared this inspirational video with me a few years ago and I have been showing it to students ever since. It is loaded with so many personal themes that most students can connect one one level or another.

Some of the themes identified by students this year were about acceptance of others despite significant differences, giving value to the talents of others, and the importance of encouragement vs criticism. My only hope is that it had enough of an impact to reach farther than the response notebook. Time will tell.
