This week I showed a video from the movie "Facing The Giants" becuase I wanted to inspire my group not to give up so easily. Many times in life we all are faced with challenges that are bigger than ourselves but if we look within we will be able to find the strength to overcome the most difficult of tasks. The scene I chose is featured below. I feel encouraged through our discussion that they got the point. I'm hoping through my observations for the remainder of the week that I will be able to identify in them growth in this area. Lastly, we were able to reflect on what happened during our community circle discussion on the students thoughts and feelings about the Trayvon Martin case. We stressed the importance of conquering fear, hatred, ignorance and prejudice with love, education and accountability. I feel really good about what we accomplished this week and look forward to another great week before the spring break.
