Today in class we continued watching the documentary "Bowling for Columbine". We were introduced to many new people (or subjects?) and we were able to make connections and observations. One of the big things we looked at was background and lighting, and why Michael Moore chose specific things. Typically we came up with "discredits subject" as the reasoning behind it, but we also went into detail about questions Moore asked and specific frames shown during the answers. We created our first claims on google classroom also.
It is important to watch documentaries, but especially ones like Bowling for Columbine. That is because gun control is such an important topic today and as we near voting age, it is important we are educated in this matter as our future and our children's future could be incredibly impacted by the decision our generation makes on this issue.
