April Morning


This week we will be watching the film April Morning. April Morning is an historical fiction novel by Howard Fast depicting the Battle of Lexington and Concord from the perspective of a fictional teenager, Adam Cooper. It takes place in the 27 hour period from April 18, 1775 to the aftermath of the battle. During that stretch, Adam comes of age and resolves his difficulties with his demanding father.
Students will journal each day about the film. When the film is finished, journals will be turned in and graded. If a student misses a day of school, he/she will need to watch the missed portion of the film before or after school.
