I asked a student recently to share some ideas with me about topics that might be of interest for students that I could either address or share on this blog. The student sent me a couple of links to movie trailers focused upon adolescent audiences.
As it turns out, on my recent trip to London I watched the first movie, The Perks of Being a Wallflower, on the plane. I thought it was really well done. It is definitely targeted at high school audiences and deals with the social challenges and decisions facing teenagers.
The Perks of Being a Wallflower – The award winning book is available in the library!
ABC TV Movie “Cyberbully” – I haven’t viewed this movie but I am glad to see that this important topic is getting mainstream TV network attention in the US.
