When it plays, we want you to sing as loud and clear as you can. Practice up before game day! Hello out there, we're on the air, it's 'Hockey Night' tonight. Tension grows, the whistle blows, and the puck goes down the ice. The goalie jumps, and the players bump, and the fans all go insane. Someone roars, "BOBBY SCORES!", at the good ol' Hockey Game. OH! The good ol' Hockey game, is the best game you can name. And the best game you can name, is the good ol' Hockey game. Second Period. Where players dash, with skates aflash, the home team trails behind. But they grab the puck, and go bursting up, and they're down across the line. They storm the crease, like bumble bees, they travel like a burning flame. We see them slide, the puck inside, it's a 1-1 hockey game. OH! The good ol' Hockey game, is the best game you can name. And the best game you can name, is the good ol' Hockey game. Third Period. Last game of the playoffs, too! Oh take me where, the hockey players, face off down the rink. And the Stanley Cup, is all filled up, for the champs who win the drink. Now the final flick, of a hockey stick, and the one gigantic scream. "The puck is in! The home team wins!", the good ol' hockey game. OH! The good ol' Hockey game, is the best game you can name. And the best game you can name, is the good ol' Hockey game. OH! The good ol' Hockey game, is the best game you can name. And the best game you can name, is the good ol' Hockey game. OH! The good ol' Hockey game, is the best game you can name.

8 Introduce the history of Alberta s vast natural resources and the importance of oil for Edmonton and the province. Students and teachers will research the history of natural resources in Alberta and why they are important to the growth of our province. Once students have completed the research and gained knowledge about one of Alberta s main natural resources, they are to complete the following assignment.

9 Thinking like an athlete requires you to organize, plan and focus your specific life goals. Great athletes have a natural talent and are often good at many sports. Yet, they realize to become elite hockey players, they must devote all their focus, time, energy and resources to mastering their craft. As an athlete, it is important to be able to manage a daily schedule and develop time management skills. The players travel great distances for games, practice daily, attend school, and enjoy their downtime. A crucial skill for athletes is to be on time for each part of their day. 17) Using the sample schedule below, create your own daily timetable for your last two days including activities, homework, school, meals and family time.

10 Healthy snacks have at least one serving from two of the food groups in Canada s Food Guide. A snack needs to include protein, fat and carbohydrate to be satisfying! Athletes need to plan their meals and snacks to ensure that their bodies have the nutrition they need to play at their best everyday! Create 3 different snacks using the chart below: Fruits & Vegetables Grain Products Milk & Alternatives Meats & Alternatives (carbohydrates) (carbohydrates) (proteins, fats) (proteins, fats) Fresh fruit Whole grain crackers or rice cakes White or chocolate milk Meat Raw vegetables Whole grain breads, bagels or English muffin Cheese Hummus or bean spread Dried fruit Whole grain pita, flat bread or tortilla Yogurt Canned light tuna Canned fruit cups Whole grain cereal Fortified soy beverage Eggs Fruit sauce (apple sauce) Whole grain chapatti, naan or roti Pudding Nuts, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds SNACK 1: SNACK 2: SNACK 3:

11 What is community service? Community service is volunteering your time to help those in your community without being paid. It can be something that is done once, or something that is done over and over again. Athletes regularly take part in community service. They know that giving back to their community when they can is very important! Place an X beside each action below that shows community service: Donating clothes Washing your hands Making treats for an old age home Collecting food for a food bank Packing a lunch for school Watching an Oil Kings game Tutoring a friend in math Picking up litter at the park Donating food to an animal shelter Donating books to a classroom Doing your homework Riding your bike to the park In what ways can you serve your community?

13 Every year before the hockey season starts, the arena uses an advanced refrigeration system that pumps freezing salt water through a system of pipes that run through a large piece of concrete known as the "ice slab." Once the ice slab is cold enough, layers of water are added to it. The first few layers are painted with the hockey markings like the red line and the blue line, as well as the advertisements that you see on the ice. These layers are then covered with 8 to 10 more thin layers of ice. When complete, the ice is only one inch thick! The ice stays in place from September to May. In 2016, artists including as Metric, Brad Paisley and Marianas Trench will perform on a stage above 10,211 gallons (38,652 litres) of frozen water! Have you ever heard hockey announcers say things like "fast ice" or "slow ice," or even "good ice" or "bad ice?" What does that mean? Fast ice is harder and colder with a smoother surface, while slow ice is warm and soft and may have a rough surface. For the players, the difference seems to be that "fast ice" is less "chippy" and there is less snow. Passing and skating are easier when the ice is "fast." The quality of the ice changes during the course of the game and it even changes how teams play the game. In other words, players tend to make a safer or easier plays rather than a trickier play when there is slow ice or bad ice. The ice at the beginning of a period is better than it is at the end of a period! See if you notice any difference in what the players do on fast ice versus slow ice!

14 Hockey pucks have been around nearly as long as the game of hockey itself though the very first hockey players used a ball instead. Pucks are made of rubber since natural rubber is one of the most elastic substances known. A puck is compounded with other materials to give it strength and to make it less elastic, but pucks still have a rubbery nature. A puck is 1 inch thick, 3 inches wide and weighs grams! FUN FACT: Pucks are frozen before games and in-between periods to make them bounce less! The hockey stick is a player s most important piece of equipment. They use it to carry the puck, pass and shoot. They were originally made only of wood but players today use sticks made out of fibreglass, carbon fibre or even Kevlar! Players tape their sticks before every game. It makes it easier to handle the puck, and protects the stick from being damaged by water.

Use the hockey fun facts to answer questions on the following page: The blade on the bottom of a players skate is made out of steel The temperature of the ice during a game is -5 Celsius.

Over the course of a game, players can lose between 2-4 kg of bodyweight. This weight is mostly water, which is why a player drinks liquids on the bench to replenish their body.

15 Use the hockey fun facts to answer questions on the following page: The blade on the bottom of a players skate is made out of steel The temperature of the ice during a game is -5 Celsius. Water freezes at 0 Celsius. Goalie masks are made out of Kevlar, the same material used in bulletproof vests for police officers. Over the course of a game, players can lose between 2-4 kg of bodyweight. This weight is mostly water, which is why a player drinks liquids on the bench to replenish their body. New materials for hockey sticks include aluminum and carbon-graphite, Which generally weigh less than wooden sticks. A player s slap shot can reach speeds of up to 165 km/h! An official game puck measures 7.6cm in diameter and 2.6cm in thickness. It weighs between 156g-170g and is constructed of vulcanized rubber. The puck is frozen prior to professional games to make them even more bounce resistant. Hockey nets are roughly 1.83m wide and 1.22m high. This allows for 2.23m 2 between the pipes for a potential scoring opportunity. It takes over 55,000 litres of water to make a regulation size rink ready for hockey games to be played on them. That s the equivalent to more than 110,000 standard bottles of water.
