Playing Around with Media Literacy

One of my favorite units to save until the end of the year is media literacy because I love to teach it through a kid-favorite movie, Toy Story 2!  This movie is chocked full advertising techniques and the use of sounds and images to move people to feel or act a certain way.  It also doesn't hurt that by the time we get to May we could all use a movie day!

I love it so much that I created a resource to use right along with it, so not only do my kids get to watch a movie, but I've got great content to keep my classroom rigorous and admin-visit ready right up to the end of the year!  Hope you enjoy this one as much as I do!
