a suitable movie
|
Dear Esl Teachers,
I intend to prepare a movie for my students but time is a problem. I �m searching for a short movie - half an hour or an hour maximum- suitable for 13- year-old students with a good theme to run a discussion after watching it. Nothing INTERESTING came to my mind. I need your help. If you can suggest any short interesting movies, I �ll be grateful.
Thanks a lot

The movie based on the book Holes was very good and I think would appeal to 13 year olds. I don�t think you�ll find a full feature movie that is only 1 hr long though. |

I �d say "Cyberbully" 2011, but it �s 2 hours long. You could divide it into 30 min sessions. BTW there are plenty of scenes in the movie to end a session with, leaving your ss in suspense wondering what will happen next :) that will definitely spike an after-watching discussion.See the movie trailer here.

I really like showing Mr. Bean as they can all understand his body language, and they will have to discuss in English what he is doing, what problems he runs into, etc. Charlie Chaplain is also great for this.
There are also cartoon shorts that are really good. Pixar has a whole DVD of them. |
