The Great Debaters Viewing Guide and Introduction to Debate Bundle
This 5 day lesson plan for high school students includes everything you need to introduce your students to logic, logical fallacies and debate in an engaging way! I use it with my juniors before we do classroom policy debates. The movie is based on the true story of the Wiley College debate team in the 1930s, which was the first all black college debate team to debate a white college team and which has been a champion team since. The movie is riveting and inspirational, and I've never had a clas

The Great Debaters Viewing Guide
This movie is a must in my public speaking class. I use this movie to preface our debate unit as well as to demonstrate how public speaking is not just a required course, but a useful tool that can motivate and inspire people.
Viewing guide includes comprehension questions surrounding the movie's action as well as objective-based questions (summary, text structure, etc.).
Such a great resource for any public speaking class or unit. This movie relates to the civil rights movement as well.

I taught this as a precursor to The Help by Kathryn Stockett, but this assignment can be taught with any novel associated with women's gender roles and expectations in the 1940's - 1950's - early 1960's.
The goal of this assignment is for students to understand the social expectations of women during the 40's, 50's and early 60's.

The Great Debaters Viewing Guide and Quiz
I have never had a class not be riveted by the 2007 movie The Great Debaters, directed by and starring Denzel Washington. It is just old enough that most students haven’t seen it before, yet new enough to not look or feel dated. The PG13 dialogue and plot is just sophisticated enough and edgy enough to keep high school students interested without being too graphic. (Teachers should be warned, however, that racial slurs are used and there is one brief but graphic scene of a lynching.) Based on th

Leadership and Problems in Apollo 13
Apollo 13 is an iconic movie that I always used to introduce problem solving. The best scene for this is when the engineers attempt to fix the aircraft by creating a new filter. Because the film is about all of the problems on the Apollo 13 spacecraft and how the astronauts and engineers attempt to bring it home safely, I often had students analyze the problems and assess how they were remedied.
It is also a great movie to have students analyze various leadership styles--autocratic, democratic

Les Miserables Movie Follow Along Guide
This is an easy way to show students a movie with a lesson plan! This handout is designed to help students understand elements of drama while watching a movie. I suggest playing the movie with captions to make it easier for students to answer the questions about details, names, and complex plot. I often find students understand the film better when captions are on and when we pause to give them a chance to answer questions, as some do require knowledge of elements of drama (terms and definitions
