20th Century Movie Watching Competition - let all those interested get involved

Yes. We all know that watching Hollywood movies is not always a great way to learn about history from an accurate perspective but it can help bring some of these events to life.

We are going to have a competition that will last until the end of March.  Most movies watched wins a prize (that will be good). It will not involve a higher mark. 

CRITERIA:

• Watch the movie - scribble down a couple of notes
• Have a conversation with me that includes
• 3 THINGS YOU LIKED ABOUT THE MOVIE
• 2 THINGS YOU THOUGHT CONNECTED TO THE COURSE CURRICULUM
• 1 THING THAT YOU THOUGHT WAS INACCURATE OR PROBLEMATIC
• If you've seen the movie in the last 12 months, it can count.  Otherwise, you must re-watch it with a new lens.  Many of them can be borrowed from me, or from the library.
• Record your movie on the list in the classroom beside your name.
• Note some of them may be restricted rating - please have your parents approve this choice.
