At the beginning of the school year I use Super Mario Bros to teach scientific inquiry. During the lesson kids ask me questions about the games I own and my favorite Mario games. One kid asked me if I had Mario Sunshine, I told him that that was the only Mario game I don't own.

Yesterday, on the last day of the school, that same student gave me a wrapped gift. I opened it and inside was his old copy of Super Mario Sunshine. He said he had beat it and thought that it should be my turn to beat the game. Normally us older gamers are encouraging and giving games we beat to the younger generation, it was cool to have the roles reversed.
nice sunshine is one of my favorite mario games its quite a beautiful game

I shed a tear.

Out of curiosity and desire to steal your lesson plan should I never need it, how do you use SMB for that?
