See Mr. Lee's example below:
Dear Parents/Guardians of Grade 7,
We have just begun a unit in class exploring documentary films. Students will be deconstructing these films as they would a novel, summarizing them, making predictions, inferring, and reflecting on their meaning. As part of the unit, students will be preparing a culminating task where they are to choose and watch a documentary by themselves, and then present their ideas about it. We are asking students to choose the documentary from either cbc.ca/player or nfb.ca/channels, as much of the content is educational, Canadian, and free and legal to view.
To make certain that your child chooses a film which is appropriate for their level, please have conversations with your child about the documentary he/she chooses to view, and, if possible, watch the film with him/her.
Thanks again for your incredible support of our program.
Sincerely,
Mr. Lee
