HI Tammi, I'm sorry you're having trouble downloading a file. Unfortunately, that's not something a seller can help you with -- you'll need to contact TPT tech support and ask. Look all the way at the bottom of the page where it says "contact us."

Sharon Fulmer(c) re: Million Dollar Baby multiple-choice Literary Term Test
Lisa,
For the Million Dollar Baby test key, the multiple choice answers all say A for questions 4-25. Is this correct? Do I have the wrong answer key by accident?

Lisa,
I purchased your lesson to use with 12th grade regular classes and AP Lit classes. I had seen the movie at the theater when it first came out, so I was familiar with it when I stumbled upon your lesson. I watched the first half with colleagues so that we could be pick out the specific elements ourselves. Two of them teach 12th regular and are somewhat conservative. Even though we teach in a non-conservative low-income district with little parent involvement, they were uncomfortable with the language. I and another colleague were not so much. What grade levels did you use this lesson with? Did you show the movie during class time?

HI Sharon. I understand the concern. In my district, we must get parental permission before showing a film. (I'm assuming this question is about the Million Dollar Baby lesson). I have done variations of this lesson with students in grades 10-12, but always with parental permission slips signed first. On the form, I state that the film's rating is due to language and physical violence. I have never had a student or parent complain.

I just ordered the Of Mice and Men Study Questions and cannot download the file. I have the right program to open the file...but it says that the file cannot be found or is non exsistent. I paid a dollar and would really like to have this - or would like to have my dollar back. Thanks!

Stephanie...I've never encounterd this problem before! I'm so sorry you're having difficulty with the download. Did you get ahold of TpT? I can't do anything as the product author to help with a download or refund...TpT has to handle that stuff.

Hi Brent...sorry it's been a couple of days before I answered...I've been out of town for the weekend. I didn't see any negative comments from you, so I'm a little confused. I hate to admit that I don't remember exactly how many pages the test is. I believe 3 (multiple choice format).

okay--so I am dumb. I didn't see that this was an available option to buy. I am on hold to see if I can amend my evaluation for the Million Dollar Baby Unit plan pack. Please disregard my one negative comment. Again, I do commend your creativity and your ingenuity. Please forgive me for my error.

I Kelli. The summer assignment includes work on literary terms, a film study (Hamlet), college application essay work, and two books in preparation for the year: Jane Eyre and Brave New World.
Hope this helps!

Hi!
Your AP materials look great. Can I ask what book(s) you use for the Summer Assignment, or is it a general assignment. I'm thinking of ordering the bundle.
Thanks!
Kelli
