Freedom Writers Project 05C
Vallåsskolan, Halmstad · Senast uppdaterad: 19 augusti 2019
From the moment they named themselves the Freedom Writers the students of room 203 changed - from a group of apathetic, frustrated students to a closely knit, motivated family.
A true and gripping story of inner city kids raised on drive-by shootings and hard core attitude – and the teacher who gives them the one thing they need the most; a voice of their own.
The aim of this project is to develop your ability to...
- understand and interpret speech and and texts,
- express yourselves in speech and writing,
- use language strategies to understand and make yourselves understood,
- adapt language for different purposes, recipients and contexts, and
- reflect over living conditions, social and cultural phenomena in different contexts and parts of the world where English is used.
How are we doing this?
You are going to...
- watch the movie The Freedom Writers,
- read parts of The Freedom Writers' Diary,
- write about your thoughts and feelings in a note book, after each part of the movie and the book,
- discuss your thoughts and feelings in pairs,
- take a reading comprehension test of the first 30 pages in the book,
- write a letter to one of the characters in the movie or in the book.
