B DISCUSS IN CLASS
 Tammy Amaral said that hockey embodies the blue collar work ethic - getting up
early in the morning to go somewhere and work really hard. What do you think she
means by that? Do you agree/disagree? Can you make comparisons with a sport you
play yourself?
 Do you think women’s sports get the same credit as men’s sports? Why/why not? If
not, then why do you think that is? Do you think it is good or bad? What do you think
the sports industry should do to make it different, if you think it should change?
 John Layman, who created the comics “Chew”, says there has been a renaissance of
genres in the comics business. What do you think he means? How many different
genres in comics can you think of? Write them down on the whiteboard and see how
many you can find!
 The Reelise pocket film festival focused on cyber bullying. Do you think cyber bullying
is a problem? Why/why not? Why do you think cyber bullying has grown so big? Who
do you think is more affected by cyber bullying? Young people? Old? Men? Women?
Children? Everyone? How do you think cyber bullying can differ between different
age groups? Do you think there are differences in cyber bullying that are related to
culture, tradition, religion, politics etc?
