HW 47

  • It might be interesting to document each grade in SOF, including middle school.  We could pick a subject and focus on it.  We could then see the progress of the learning or the difference in grasping the attention, depending on the ages of the grade.   (***)
  • Adding on to the first bullet, after that was filmed we could have a make believe classroom of the similar ideas of Blackboard Jungle, and see if SOF lives up to that idea or if its very different.
  • Adding on to the second bullet, Andy could be the "god" that came to SOF to save the souls of the public school kids.  Mr. Fanning could play Mr. Fanning.  (***)
  • Props: Journals to change the students perspective on school and life.  
  • Have the "students" be recorded like on reality TV when they give the viewers an update on how they are feeling.  
  • One Student who is considered the leader of the class who everyone listens to.
  • Mr. Kinory had students put on a presentation at parent teacher conferences to show the parents progress, could have something similar to that in movie.  (***) - Before and After Effect.
  • The teacher has to have very alternative teaching to the other teachers next door, could use Manley and Copeland as traditional teachers. (***)
  • If the roof garden is opened during the filming could use it in scene to show alternative teaching.
  • Start the movie with one of the students narrating, have them look back on high school, and them describing their experiences.  (***)
(***) = Most Important
