| How We Determine Our Grades | |
After watching a movie with your children or students, we encourage parents and teachers to look for education opportunities to teach with movies. Here are a few discussion topics that can help with lesson plans or teaching in the home.
The A-Team TV show was criticized for depicting many violent acts where no blood was seen and few people were ever seriously injured or killed. Do you think it is more correct to portray violence with realistic injuries? What are the pros and cons between these two scenarios?
The one major female character in this film appears to be employed in a position of control. Is this an accurate assessment? Who is she actually accountable to? What characters determine the outcome of her investigation?
