DOCUMENTARY BUNDLE - BLACKFISH, BOWLING FOR COLUMBINE and SUPER SIZE ME

This is a bundle of lessons covering award-winning documentaries BLACKFISH, BOWLING FOR COLUMBINE and SUPER SIZE ME.

PLUS - two worksheets - one on Aristotle's Means of Persuasion, and one that introduces students to begin working on their own persuasive campaign.

This bundle includes three resources available in my store, plus the two worksheets that are only available in this package.

SUPER SIZE ME

Obesity is second only to smoking as the biggest killer in the United States. Morgan Spurlock's award-winning documentary highlights the dangers of fast food in a hilarious and shocking way.

-NOTE- This documentary is 'PG-13' rated in the US and '12' in the UK. Prior-viewing is advised. There are some brief incidents of bad language and some graphic footage of surgery, along with one conversation of a sexual nature (nothing visual; this is a discussion on Morgan's impeded 'performance' as a result of his diet.)

BOWLING FOR COLUMBINE

The Columbine tragedy affected the world. It was the first in a wave of school shootings and people have fought to understand why and how it could have happened.

Michael Moore's award-winning documentary seeks to unearth the background to America's gun crimes and questions everything from causes to culpability.

-NOTE- This documentary is 'R' rated in the US and '15' in the UK. Prior-viewing is advised. There are some incidents of bad language and some graphic footage, but I strongly believe that the importance of this documentary outweighs any potential concerns.

BLACKFISH

This documentary explores SeaWorld's treatment of killer whales and interviews past and present employees and orca trainers. A hard-hitting look at the treatment of animals in captivity, this documentary is a perfect way to introduce students to the rules of rhetoric.
