Why are they watching movies in school???
Indeed. I have seen We Were Soldiers, the Patriot and parts of Saving Private Ryan. They are nice tributes to Americans who exhibited valor when forced to go to war but I would call them more inspirational than eductional. Spending class time on them is better than watching an Al Gore or Michael Moore movie, but that is not much of an endorsement.
Why watching movies in school? I don’t understand either. How about giving the students a list of movies they want them to see with their parents and then be prepared to discuss them in class??
