Movie Reviews of Our Friend, Martin
Movie Review: Great for classroom
Summary: 5 Stars
I originally purchased this for a friend who is also a teacher, however after seeing it, I decided I wanted one for my classroom as well! It is a great mix of animation and actual footage. My friend teaches in the primary grades and we both felt additional instruction and explanation might be necessary for that audience. I teach upper elementary and the DVD will support a basal reader selection quite nicely and without additional instruction. Highly recommend.Movie Review: Excellent video!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have shown this video to my special education students (grades 3 to 5) for many years. They enjoy the music, the animation, the real video footage, and the time-traveling premise. They commented on Dr. King's speeches and his voice. Most of all, they GOT the Message. It really opened the door for many discussion questions. A great way to teach our history to low- and non-readers.Movie Review: Great Teaching Tool
Summary: 5 Stars
This DVD tells about the life of Dr. Martin Luther King in a way that spans several age groups. I purchased the video cassette about 9 years ago for my daughter's K4 class. I have since purchased additional copies and donated to teachers and libraries in my community. The material even appeals to the upper elementary grade students. This is a great teaching tool.Movie Review: Great DVD!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of the best DVD's ever for children! It gives a clear idea of what it was like to be a minority in the 1960's and how MLK helped lead the civil rights movement. I show it every year to my fifth grade students.Our Friend, MartinMovie Review: Fun & Educational
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been showing this film in my middle school classroom for years (on VHS) and needed an update. It is warm, sometimes funny, and brings MLK to life as the boy who grows up to be one of life's great heroes. The characters'"voices" are familiar and every year the kids ask to see it again.
I highly recommend this one.
