Boys In The Media Essay

Media Champion, G. (Director). (2014). The Gabby Douglas Movie [Motion picture on DVD]. Canada: Lifetime. The Gabby Douglas Movie is the story of world famous gymnast Gabby Douglas and how she became an olympic gold medalist. It was made after she became a gold medalist and aired on lifetime in 2014.

The magazine is broken up by articles and also has a table of content on the beginning few pages.
“Sports Illustrated kids” has been not only a great addition to my classroom but also to the whole facility. The way the kids get excited about reading when we get the new issue is rare. I use this in my classroom during free reading time and between classes. It is a great magazine because the articles are not too long allowing my students to finish most articles in five to ten minutes. This works great for my students who can read during breaks and even when others are cooking lunch. I like the way they guide kids into making healthy choices. The other great thing about this magazine is the workouts and activities that they suggest and show kids since it does catch their
