How to use Google Presentations:

Choose your film from cbc.ca/player. Choose Doc Zone, The Passionate Eye, or The Nature of Things:

If you are watching a documentary from somewhere else, make certain it is approved by your parent and is G or PG rated.

Presentations begin on Tuesday, June 10.

Important Letter for Parents:

Dear Parents/Guardians of Grade 7,

We have just begun a unit in class exploring documentary films. Students will be deconstructing these films as they would a novel, summarizing them, making predictions, inferring, and reflecting on their meaning. As part of the unit, students will be preparing a culminating task where they are to choose and watch a documentary by themselves, and then present their ideas about it. We are asking students to choose the documentary from either cbc.ca/player or nfb.ca/channels, as much of the content is educational, Canadian, and free and legal to view.

To make certain that your child chooses a film which is appropriate for their level, please have conversations with your child about the documentary he/she chooses to view, and, if possible, watch the film with him/her.

Thanks again for your incredible support of our program.

Sincerely,

Mr. Lee
