Soon after The Freedom Writers, a movie based on the book The Freedom Writer’s Diary by Erin Gruwell and her students, was released to theaters, I viewed the movie and posted a review here.
I know some educators don’t like this kind of movie in general and didn’t like this movie in particular, but I enjoyed the movie and found value in using it in the classroom in order to teach the power of written expression and finding one’s voice. In addition, I think the movie is a great way for my students in particular to understand a broader spectrum of the American experience. Finally, as the movie centers around how Gruwell’s students were affected by a work of literature, I think the movie shows the profound connections we can make between literature and our own lives if we avail ourselves of the opportunity.
I think the movie would work well in an English class, but I like to use it in writing courses as well. The question is, what can you do with the movie? Related posts:Freedom Writers: Teaching. I.

*This Lesson Plan is an excerpt from THE FREEDOM WRITERS DIARY TEACHER'S GUIDE.
The Line Game is a great opportunity to become more familiar with your class and for your students to learn about each other in a non-threatening, and interactive way. This activity enables you to solicit information from your students that they may not feel comfortable sharing with a teacher. Knowledge about your students’ lives will enable you to craft relevant lesson plans that effectively engage them in the learning process.
Sharing information about each other will also build a sense of community within the classroom that involves everyone’s participation. Sometimes it is difficult for students to open up in front of their peers, but the Line Game gives students an opportunity to speak volumes, without ever saying a word. Students will split into two lines, facing each other. Ground Rules: Before you begin the game, it is important to establish expectations. Absolutely no talking, laughing, or joking.The Freedom Writer's Diary quiz: 10 questions by Kate Heneghan. FreedomWriters.pdf. FILM-freedom-writers-film-curriculum. Doent.
