Teaching With Movies
F.I.L.M.-Finding Inspiration in Literature & Movies
I have been looking for something like this for years!
Whether you are mostly an audio, visual or kinesthetic learner more than likely you will benefit from information received from a variety of sources. I don't think that movies have been appreciated for their educational value like they should be and this resource makes use of most of our senses so there's got to be some learning value in here for just about everyone!
Best of all, this resource is FREE! Yes, that's what I said, a free resource. This is how public education should be. Resources available to all for use if they need it.
This website provides curriculum for using movies and the books that inspired them to find the teaching moments in these resources. This gives us the opportunity to see that, while movies have entertainment value, many times they also have life lessons included in the story. Lessons that can help us cope with situations and make good life choices.
Each movie has a book that inspired it and the curriculum uses both to create an opportunity to discuss the deeper meaning. Age levels are suggested to help you choose which is appropriate for your child.
