Semester+One+Extra+Credit+Opportunity+11-12

1. WWII Movie Extra Credit In order to provide more perspective on World War II (our next unit) and make the events of WWII come to life, KIS US History students have the opportunity to watch a movie focusing on WWII to earn extra credit. Students who choose to do this can earn extra credit by following these steps: 1. Watch one of the following movies: The Pianist, Saving Private Ryan, Schindler's List, or Swing Kids. **STUDENTS MUST NOT HAVE EVER SEEN THE MOVIE BEFORE IN ORDER TO EARN EXTRA CREDIT.**

2. Take a picture of yourself(ves) watching the movie and email it to your teacher by **Tuesday Jan 10 at 8:00 am**. //Note: Even if your class does not meet on Tuesday (US-B - Duncan, and US-D - Wood), your photo is due by 8 am on Tuesday, Jan 10.//
 * When you email this to your teacher, **the title of your email MUST be: “WWII Extra Credit Photo”**. If you do not do this, you will not be allowed to complete the rest of the assignment for extra credit.
 * Students who have not taken a picture of themselves by Tue 10 Jan will NOT be allowed to complete the assignment.

3. On that day, students will receive their assignment that will require questions to be answered about the movie. It is approximately 2 pages (typed) of answers. Students will email that assignment to their respective teachers on **Thursday January 12 by 8:00 am**. Those who have completed all steps and have thoughtful responses will earn up to 5 bonus points on a 1st semester test grade.


 * Note: This is completely optional**.

2. Exam Grades The exam grades will not be posted until after school resumes in January.

Have a great holiday!
