Join Ryan and Howie as they jump into the Timekeeper’s time machine and dream about what it would be like to experience some of Walt Disney’s greatest moments. We can’t help but think that this could be something educators could build upon and make a lesson out of. Imagine what the students could discover by pretending to go back in history to meet or observe a historical figure or event.
Howie and Ryan share some points on Walt’s timeline that mean something to them. Howie talks about Walt’s failures in the beginning, Disney’s Folly- Snow White, and Walt’s trip to Orlando in 1965. Howie does a masterful job of taking us back to these particular times and sharing some little known facts about these events. Ryan shares some of his favorite Walt moments that include; young Walt and family moving to Marceline MO, Walt’s trip to South America, and the informational video shot about E.P.C.O.T.
Enjoy the 15th episode of season 2 as much as we enjoyed traveling back in time and sharing our thoughts about Walt’s life. Walt is, after all the inspiration for both Howie and I in creating My Disney Class and of course we hope he inspires you as well to create your own classroom magic.
