A student of mine, Julio, wanted me to post this video of him and his friends demonstrating their skateboarding skills. That way, as he put it, “everyone can look at it and say ‘damn that guy is so sexy.’” I have to admit there’s real joy in this video. Sometimes we teachers forget how much fun our kids get out of life, perhaps because we expect them to do so much work. By the way, the kid who keeps putting his palm in front of the lens kind of kills it.
