| 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 burden Frodo is asked to bear becomes so heavy he feels he can no longer carry it. Where does the extra strength he needs come from? Where have you turned when you have felt weighed down by sorrow or responsibility?
How do you interpret the events that lead up to Gandalf’s return? What are your feelings about the life after death?

Donna Gustafson has been involved with her husband Rod's work since the
beginning. Handling many of the behind-the-scenes tasks, she also creates
preview pages for up-coming movies, acts as managing editor and occasionally writes reviews.
