Students will receive credit for an activity after writing a one-page, 12-point font, double-spaced review.  The following material must be typed. Please fill the entire page.

            1.  1 paragraph summary

            2.  1 paragraph stating what you learned that you didn’t know before, and how you personally felt

about the movie or the activity.  Did you like it? Why or why not?

 

After completing the review, please turn it in to Mrs. S. for credit.

 

**Note:

 

1.  Check with Mrs. S. beforehand to see if you can earn extra credit for certain movies.

 

 2.  Also, most documentaries will count for some points. So please, if you are vegetating in front of the TV in the evening and find some documentary that is interesting, please stop and watch.  Take a few notes and then write the review.  Be sure to let me know the amount of time you spent watching the documentary.
