I downloaded Man vs Wild - Bear's Top 25 Moments recently and showed it in class (to my 6th grade afternoon classes). Students had to watch the video and write, in English, their 8 favorite moments from the episode. It went really well. Uh... make sure to skip Bear's #1 moment... he gives himself an enema.

sticking a tube up his ass is his number one moment.... didn't seem like the kinda guy to be into that and other water sports... Wink


a clip I like to show is "Shark vs Octopus from Natl. Geographic... and have them describe what happened.

Before I showed it, I'd ask who the class thought would win.... it was like a regular Fight Club! Twisted Evil

That looked more like a dogfish than a shark to me. In any case the octopus was about 10 times the size of it.
