Reminders
|
*Note: Many of these films are unrated or rated PG-13 and contain adult themes, language, and/or content. For this reason, if you wish to view a film with a rating other than G or PG, your parents must submit a permission form before you begin the assignment. I recommend parents use Common Sense Media (a secular website) or Focus on the Family's Plugged In (a Christian website) before giving students permission to watch a film.
