The freedom writers
the past two days we have been watching the freedom writers for our film study. In the movie, I focused on making a change and if you put in the effort you can do what you want.
What I really liked about this movie is that Ms. G the Teacher helped the kids change their life and that the fact she was having trobles at home and had other people trying to pull her down such as the VP ( Vice Principal) she tried to get what she believed in. She made a huge impact on the class 203s. When she first started she had no recourses because the kids were 'Dumb" and that's the "couldn't read" she went out of her way and picked up a couple more shifts at a different job so she could found the class new books to read and Diaries. At the start of the movie when she first becomes a teacher no of the students liked her because she was a new teacher but by the end of the movie they didn't want to leave the classroom.
Ms. G wanted to find out what their life was like and to see what their personal lives were like so she brought some diaries for every student and if they wanted to share them with the teacher they would put them in a locked cupboard.
With them writing in there diaries the students started liking the teacher because he made her class fun and made them learn in a way that they got the most information but they didn't know, there was a scene where they were all dancing in the classroom that made me think of how they were experiencing what love felt like it but they didn't realize because they were having such fun they were all getting along and they could be there selfs
