ELA 10: Critical Thinking

ELA 10: Critical Thinking

The opportunity for students to watch a documentary every Friday that relates to the big units/themes of the course, reflect on the themes found in the documentaries, and create their own documentary pitch as a final project/exam.
 

Project:

You are a teenager with an amazing idea for a new documentary that you are sure everyone will want to see!  You just know that if this documentary gets picked up you will hit the big time.  In order for this documentary to hit the big screen, you first have to pitch it to a big time Executive Director, and convince him/her that this film is worth the money.
