The West Wing Teaching Guide - Seasons 1-7
This is a complete book for ALL 7 SEASONS!
Like most Social Studies teachers, I’m always very excited anytime a new movie or better yet television series comes out that is about something that I teach in class. Yes, there are often lots of inaccuracies, but it’s about the things I love…and that things I teach….double whammy! The West Wing was one of those series, but more than just watching when it was on TV, I now find myself watching it over and over again in the years since it has gone off

Not to mention all the amazing media and literary devices used to highlight emotion and pique viewer interest. This unit is aligned with the Ontario Curriculum (Language 2023 and Health 2019)
