WHERE DID COMMUNITY GO (TEACHERS, PARENTS, GR. 4-12)
Where Did Community Go presents a simple and profoundvideo message from the YMCA of Vancouver Canada through the voice of an elementary ag ed girl. Simple questions such as "Why are we inside more than ever and outside even less." "We eat fast, but together less." (Family dinners down 14 per cent.)
I used this 1:01 minute video to give examples of persuasive arguments for my grade 5 students. It also served as a good discussion on maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
