Out of the mouths of babes.

This video appears in the VEOH ESL video channel
Here are some questions for you to answer.
The film is about a musical genius (prodigy) who grows up in an orphanage in New York City (north-east coast of the USA).
The boy changes his name from "Evan" to __. (What is the boy's new name?)
Who helps him choose his new name?
Where does he get the idea for this new name?
The great English novelist Charles Dickens chose names for his characters that had special meaning. Describe the character of the man named "Wizard"?
This film follows Dickens' style in many ways. Dickens made use of vivid settings. Also, fate and birth (social class) are significant in Dickens' novels, as they are in this story. Advanced students:: Are these things important in this film?
Comments: This film is different from many other films on the movie circuit and his highly recommended for positive child and adult spiritual education. Films and books that parents should avoid exposing their children to are all in the Harry Potter series and the latest film, The Golden Compass.

Luther Vandross - Dance With My Father Lyrics print version
Back when I was a child
Before life removed all the innocence
My father would lift me high
And dance with my mother and me and then
Spin me around till I fell asleep
Then up the stairs he would carry me
And I knew for sure
I was loved
If I could get another chance
Another walk, another dance with him
I’d play a song that would never, ever end
How I’d love, love, love to dance with my father again
Ooh, ooh
When I and my mother would disagree
To get my way I would run from her to him
He’d make me laugh just to comfort me, yeah, yeah
Then finally make me do just what my mama said
Later that night when I was asleep
He left a dollar under my sheet
Never dreamed that he
Would be gone from me
If I could steal one final glance
One final step, one final dance with him
I’d play a song that would never, ever end
‘Cause I’d love, love, love to dance with my father
again
Sometimes I’d listen outside her door
And I’d hear her, mama cryin’ for him
I pray for her even more than me
I pray for her even more than me
I know I’m prayin’ for much too much
But could You send back the only man she loved
I know You don’t do it usually
But Lord, she’s dyin’ to dance with my father again
Every night I fall asleep
And this is all I ever dream
The funniest one is when the person doesn't notice that Iran is where Australia is supposed to be.
We watched this video today. First we checked to see if any of the students could find Korea on the world map. We made the quiz really difficult by showing students some maps where Korea was not even shown, and students quickly picked out the trick maps, and even paged through the atlas to find Korea. Then, we took the time to consider two points.
1. Why some people cannot find their own country on the world map.
Students mentioned many points in the discussion. High school students aged between 13 and 20 years noted some of the following reasons people may be unable to find their own country on a map:
- Maybe they don't study.
- Maybe they are not smart.
- Maybe they don't think about other countries.
- Maybe they think they are the only important country.
- Maybe they don't have any interest in the rest of the world.
- Maybe they are only taught about their local state or city in school.
2. We asked the question "Are beauty pageants good or bad?" Students from different classes gave these answers:
Pageants are bad because
- some people feel inferior and they may try and change their appearance through plastic surgery or unhealthy diets
- pageants are not about skill and intelligence which are more important than external beauty
- some people may neglect their studies if they worry about pageants too much
- Pageants make people try to improve their appearance
- Winners will feel better.
- boys like to look at beautiful women
- women like to imagine they are the winners
- World's largest cash seizure
- Russian adventure
- Bollywood star jailed
- Where did the russian scientists go?
- Does the environment suffer because of mining, drilling for oil, or shipping?
- How can the scientists prevent harm being done to the environment?
- Should movie stars get special treatment if they go to jail?
- Where was the money found, who found it?
