Here are some ideas for your classroom:
1. Exploring the Irish Film Industry: Students explore a variety of Irish films and filmmakers and identify how many of them have been nominated for an Oscar this year and how they fared.
2. Writing a Movie Review: Students watch a movie that has been nominated for an Oscar this year, and then write an in-depth review.
3. Acting Out an Oscar Performance: Students act out their favourite nominated performances, and then discuss how they felt while performing.
4. Analysing the Oscars: Students analyse the Oscars and discuss why certain films and performances get nominated and what that means for the Irish film industry.
