American Threads Movie Make Up Assignment
You may watch a movie from the list as long as the subject has been covered in class. Type up a one page, single space write up on the movie. Please do not focus on the plot. Give a very brief summary of the movie then, for ¾ of the report, write about what the movie taught you about the subject we covered in class, or how the movie added to your previous knowledge of the subject. If you would like to watch a movie that is not on the list you must get it approved by Mr. Wrenn first.
