| 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.
Many of us know the story of Moses from movies like The Ten Commandments and The Prince of Egypt. Movies based on books almost always alter or embellish the original text on which the film is based. If you have a copy of the Bible in your home, find Exodus near the beginning of the Old Testament, and read the account of Moses (chapters 2 to 15 cover the same time period as The Prince of Egypt). While reading, ask your children to look for items that have been added or altered in the movie.
