Hey, Goodyear teachers:
How About a Movie?
As a middle school teacher, would you like to offer your classes a curriculum that
encompasses many areas of learning at the same time? As a middle school student,
would you like to learn while watching classic movies?
Maybe the answer to both wishes is the free curriculum sponsored by Turner Classic Movies
and IBM called
The Story of Movies.
Because of its interdisciplinary approach to studying film, The Story of Movies
integrates the core subjects of language arts, history and social studies, music, art,
and science. In screening film segments and investigating both the language of
film and the historical and cultural context in which a film is produced, students
practice critical reading and thinking skills and formulate ideas through discussions,
written reports, and group activity projects
