Essential Question: What is the message in An Inconvenient Truth and how are propaganda techniques used to convey a message to a target audience?
Today's classroom activity concerned issues and questions in An Inconvenient Truth. Students answered guided questions as they watched the film. Following a discussion at film's end, small groups brainstormed together to create graphic organizers. This information was later used when students created posters containing their ideas to be posted about the school. These activities were developed in preparation for our upcoming coastal trip.
