English May 6

1) Warm up
Talk about the film - The duel

2) Answer the following questions about the film

A) List some of the obstacles Ms Gruwell faces in the beginning.

B) Describe the situation in room 203 in the beginning of the film.

C) What does Ms Gruwell's husband and father think about her working as a teacher?

D) What does Erin Gruwell do to earn the students' trust?

E) Eva gets really angry when she realizes that Anne Frank died. Why?

F) The students finally meet Miep Gies. Who was she?

G) In the end Eva and Sindy takes a step closer to each other. What made them do that?


3) Choose ONE of the following writing assignments:

A) In Freedom Writers, the students write diary entries to express what they are feeling and the problems that they are facing. We only get to hear some of these diary entries.

Diary Entry Activity
Choose one of the following characters:
Eva
One of the boys in the class
Erin Gruwell 
Margaret Campbell 

Then write a diary entry about Erin Gruwell’s first day at school. What do you think about her? What assumptions do you make? Do you want her to succeed or not? If you are writing as Erin, what are your ambitions and how do you think you’ll make them happen?

B) The students in Freedom Writers write letters to Miep Gies to tell her about themselves, what they thought about the book they've read and their thoughts about Miep Gies herself. Now you choose a character from Freedom Writers and you write your letter to him/her. You can write about the same things that the Freedom Writers did:

* Short introduction of yourself.
* What you thought about the film.
* Your thoughts about the character you chose.
