Welcome to the Fahreneheit 9/11 TEACHER'S GUIDE.
The lessons and activities in this GUIDE are designed to help students develop a critical analytical ability, historical perspective, and applied math skills that will open their minds beyond the current issues covered in Fahrenheit 9/11.
The individual units may easily be adapted to many levels and taught across the curriculum - Social Science, [History, Civics, Psychology, Sociology, Political Science, Economics] Language Arts, Humanities, Drama/Theatre, Film, ESL, Media/Journalism, Speech/Communications, Mathematics...
You can review the guide page by page on the website, download a PDF of each section or the whole guide.
So, go do that magic we call education! And, be sure to share, share, share! We would love to hear from you. Send your feedback or ideas to share with other educators to: teacher@michaelmoore.com
"I wonder if there are really schools where teachers could get by showing this kind of propaganda..."
Yes. Before the election there was outrage by parents at a Jacksonville Florida school where one of the "teachers" showed Fahrenheit 911 to his class. Liberal teachers will stop at nothing to indoctrinate kids.
I actually watched it last week after the election was over (A friend put me up to it in a kind of "know-your-enemy" exercise). I was astonished that anyone could possibly take it seriously. Not only was it not truthful, but it looked like it was done by the producers of "Jackass". It was just a big juvenile publicity stunt for Michael Moore. His stunts where he drives the ice cream truck around the Capitol harranguing the congresspeople with the Patriot Act and when he got the mutinuous Marine corporal to go with him harassing congresspeople to try to enlist their children in the army were the actions of an ignored 4-year old who acts up and yells "Look at me!" to try to get attention.
I just tell people I have seen it. I feel like I know point by point Moore's idiotic accusations. There was no way in hell I was going to support him financially in anyway, but now that the election is over and Moore is irrelevant, I might borrow it from someone. I live in LA so it shouldn't be to hard to find one.
Oooohhhhh!!!! Good idea. V's wife.
This post is perfect timing for me personally. My 17 year old son came home and informed me that his Sociology class is watching 3 of Michael Moore's movies....yes, including F 9/11. I was enraged this afternoon and left a message for his teacher....I didn't realize that Michael Moore was writing educational guides too!
GLSEN writes curriculum for public schools. Planned Parenthood writes curriculum for public schools. A Muslim group writes curriculum for public schools.
Why shouldn't Michael Moore write curriculum for public schools?
Might be a good idea to go down to the local public school and ask some questions, review some curriculum and textbooks, eh?
To be a true study in Sociology, and IF they insist on showing Moore's film, demand that they also show FarenHYPE 9-11. I think you have more weight (oooh - that could be a pun!) since the president won the election.
Now, now. Let's not make a cannibal out of him. LOL
A couple of teachers here in "conservative" east Tenn. showed this film in class and were reprimanded for showing an "R" rated film to kids under 18.
Sadly, I can assure you there are.
bump
Good idea.
well looking at his Fat bloated A$$ I dont think a little more pork will hurt him. I think a couple more fatback sandwiches might help to clear his arteries out a little. We all need to pitch in and take care of out little fat left wing communist buddy.You see how he really helped us turn out the vote this past election and it wont be long till the next.
They should all move to Massachusetts where a local district attorney informed a mother who was complaining about an off-color book her son had to read that museums, libraries, and public schools were immune to state pornography laws in Massachusetts.
Get outta here (pushing like Elaine on Seinfeld) LoL...... Micheal freakin Moore ...LoL..
I still think we should take an ad out in Variety thanking Michael Moore for solidifying the Republican base and reelecting George W. Bush! We can sign it THE VAST RIGHT WING CONSPIRACY!!!!!
I think 1984 should be mandatory reading in high school. After reading this book, why would any one buy the socialist garabage? It may be a work of fiction, but it is also an exact model of the society mooron and the left crave. Insanity, why, yes!
