[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thinking ahead to next Spring Break, how many people will be sending their kids Monday and Tuesday? I am willing to work around it but will be irritated to shorten a trip and then the days are worthless because so many kids are absent, the teachers plan nothing. [/quote]

Doubtful that teachers plan nothing. Obviously, they won’t hold tests, but planning nothing would mean complete chaos. [/quote]

Freshman year, during the last days before Christmas break, my kid watched Frozen in language class for 2 straight days.  And no, he wasn't studying Arendellian or even Norwegian.  At first, I assumed they were watching Frozen dubbed into Arabic, but no.  It was in English.

I guess technically there is some planning involved in remembering to bring the DVD, or to pull up your Amazon account, but not a lot.

I should add that I'm a teacher, and I've done some movie watching when attendance is low, but it's been stuff like watching West Side story if we just finished Romeo and Juliet, or watching Schindler's list if the class is studying WW2.  [/quote]
