<P>Struggling to help students engage with print texts? Looking for ways to help them learn to analyze texts deeply in a hands-on, differentiated, and real-world environment? This book explores strategies for using film study and filmmaking to help students engage in entirely new ways with both print and digital texts. The author, a high school teacher, explores how film can be read in much the same way as print texts—and can be every bit as rewarding. We are surrounded by screens, and we understand film viscerally. It’s a language we all comprehend, from which we can make meaning, even when we may not understand the technical aspects of how that process happens. And telling stories via the medium of film requires every bit of the forethought and intent that constructing print text requires. From basic team building, storyboarding, and filming-with-your-phone-camera activities to deeper dives into adapting texts, making directorial choices, and guiding audience response through texts, the author proves that you can teach film study even without specialized training. Texts incorporated into lessons include films, stories, poetry, and more. Resources include a list of film vocabulary, observation charts and rubrics, storyboard templates, and sample film technique assessments.</P>
