Students Watch the Darndest Things

Posted: April 10, 2007 in teaching

It happens about once a week that a student shows me something cool over on YouTube. A few weeks ago it was Charlie the Unicorn.

Two great benefits have come from this particular video.

  • Few of the kids got the kidney joke at the end. I took the opportunity to explain urban legends to them and the kidney legend in particular.
  • Quotes from this short have remained a part of our community lingo. We crack up every time at any mention of “Let’s go to Candy Mountain, Charlie!”

I love that my students share this stuff with me!
