Nowitzki: The Perfect Shot

“The invention of basketball was not an accident. It was developed to meet a need.

Those boys simply would not play 'Drop the Handkerchief'."

James Naismith (Canadian-American inventor of basketball ~ 1861 - 1939)

German basketball player Dirk Nowitzki has been playing for the Dallas Mavericks for almost 20 years.

This documentary talks about his start in Germany, his training and conditioning with his innovative coach, and his career in the US.

You get:

1. A 4-page introductory overhead in English with background information

2. A Feature Film sheet with 20 questions in English

3. An answer key for the question sheet.

Having students select from multiple choice answers allows

more time for their eyes to stay on the film (and not spend it

looking down writing out answers) and, thus, not miss

important moments in the film.

Everything is classroom-ready to make your job easy. (6 pages)
