Today we're going to read a story called Goodnight Hockey.
- 00:05 - 00:07
Now I'm sharing it for a couple of reasons.
- 00:07 - 00:10
Well, not only is hockey one of my favorite sports
- 00:10 - 00:14
to watch, it's also a really interesting way to look
- 00:15 - 00:17
at our heroes out in the world as we grow
- 00:18 - 00:20
in our lives.
- 00:21 - 00:23
It is always to have heroes and people that inspires.
- 00:24 - 00:28
And athletes are a really amazing way to use people
- 00:29 - 00:29
to inspire us.
- 00:30 - 00:33
Not only are they really dedicated to their craft, but
- 00:33 - 00:36
they're very knowledgeable about many other subjects that help them
- 00:36 - 00:37
be better players.
- 00:38 - 00:43
They also study and honor perseverance because in order to
- 00:43 - 00:45
play really, really well, you have to be able to
- 00:45 - 00:47
persevere through some really tough times.
- 00:48 - 00:51
So we're gonna look at good night hockey.
- 00:51 - 00:53
Now before we get started, I want to share with
- 00:54 - 00:55
you the ice rink.
- 00:55 - 00:57
Now the ice rink is where the hockey players play.
- 00:59 - 01:01
Now you'll notice that I've highlighted a few of the
- 01:01 - 01:06
teams the North Carolina Hurricanes, the New York Rangers and
- 01:07 - 01:07
the Boston Bruins.
- 01:08 - 01:10
They would all play in a drink like this.
- 01:11 - 01:13
The center of it is the center circle where the
- 01:13 - 01:15
puck is dropped in the team's actually start to play
- 01:16 - 01:19
and then either end, you'll notice, is little kind of
- 01:19 - 01:22
bluish dot That's where the goal is located and the
- 01:22 - 01:25
team's job is to protect that goal and prevent the
- 01:25 - 01:27
other team from getting the puck, which is a big
- 01:27 - 01:28
black ground distant.
- 01:29 - 01:31
They play with, sort of like the ball of hockey
- 01:31 - 01:33
from getting into that net.
- 01:34 - 01:36
So let's read today's story.
- 01:37 - 01:41
Good Night Hockey by Michael Dahl, illustrated by Christina for
- 01:41 - 01:47
shit in the heart of our town, in the snow,
- 01:48 - 01:52
in the cold is the home of our heroes.
- 01:53 - 01:54
Daring and bold.
- 01:56 - 01:58
We squeeze under blankets up in the stands.
- 01:59 - 02:04
Mugs of hot chocolate chocolate warm off our hands based
- 02:04 - 02:07
on the images of our book right now, what kind
- 02:07 - 02:11
of conditions or what's the environment like in the stadium
- 02:12 - 02:12
around the ice rink?
- 02:13 - 02:15
Do you think it's summer, Mrs Flow?
- 02:17 - 02:19
What season do you think hockey's most likely played in
- 02:20 - 02:21
usar clues?
- 02:22 - 02:23
Here come the players.
- 02:24 - 02:25
They zoom and they glide.
- 02:26 - 02:29
The puck drops, sticks and skaters collide.
- 02:30 - 02:35
A slap shot, a puck sales out wide, player zig
- 02:36 - 02:41
and the zag the puck flies like a rocket, but
- 02:41 - 02:42
our goalie is faster.
- 02:42 - 02:43
Watch. Wow!
- 02:44 - 02:45
He blocked it.
- 02:47 - 02:49
Based on what we learned from this so far.
- 02:50 - 02:53
Do you think hockey is a slow game or is
- 02:53 - 02:54
it a fast game?
- 02:55 - 02:56
What do you think?
- 02:57 - 03:00
It's the end of the first lots of action and
- 03:00 - 03:04
goals. The Zamboni chugs, chugs, smoothing ice as it rolls.
- 03:06 - 03:08
I love this part of the game when the Zamboni
- 03:08 - 03:11
rolls out, and if you look behind the Zamboni in
- 03:11 - 03:14
our picture, it gives you an indication or a clue
- 03:14 - 03:16
what the Zamboni is used for.
- 03:16 - 03:19
What do you think the Zamboni is used for?
- 03:21 - 03:22
The players take the ice.
- 03:22 - 03:23
Shots fly from each side.
- 03:25 - 03:26
More shots, more saves.
- 03:27 - 03:28
The game is tied.
- 03:30 - 03:31
A stick swings its a hat trick.
- 03:32 - 03:33
The crowd jumps in a cheers.
- 03:37 - 03:40
We throw our hats on the ice and cover our
- 03:41 - 03:44
ears. One minute left.
- 03:44 - 03:45
Where's the puck?
- 03:45 - 03:49
Will they score the final buzzer?
- 03:49 - 03:51
Sounds. Our team wins.
- 03:51 - 03:52
We all roar.
- 03:54 - 03:55
You've ever been to any sports game.

game our way, excited about the game and their teams.
- 04:05 - 04:07
It is a really fun thing to see.
- 04:08 - 04:11
It's a game to remember, but it's chilly and late.
- 04:13 - 04:16
We all say goodbye as we head toward the gate.
