Surf' up!

Surf up

Surf's up is a movie on Cody's journey in learning surfing. His parents do not think he could make it, showed no support to him. But, because of one renowned surfing penguin, Big Z, who impacted him, he proved to everyone that he could do it. "Find a way, cuz that's what winners do!"

In this show, there is also these 3 little penguins that attracted my attention. There are simply so cute! One penguin, Arnold, always "drowns" due to his desire to be rescued by Lani, the lifeguard. This reminds me of the patterns that some students have. Many a times, they do know how to solve the questions, yet, they would rather wait for their teachers (who are like the lifeguard) to teach them than to attempt the questions on their own.
When this happens, it would be best to get an agreement with the students to work on the questions first before providing them help. Else, it would become a habit to always wait for others to save them.


#Teach him the skill of fishing rather than always providing him with fishes.
