Family Movie Night as Learning Time: Integrating Film Into Homeschool
Welcome to another episode of Journey Through Homeschooling with your hosts, Jami Thornsberry, and Adonna Pryor! In today’s conversation, the spotlight is on a surprisingly rich—and sometimes controversial—topic: using movies as part of your homeschool curriculum. Jami and Adonna dive into their personal experiences, sharing why and how films became a meaningful educational tool in their own families.
You’ll hear practical tips for curating family-friendly movie lists, creative ways to launch captivating unit studies from classic films, and great advice on fostering critical thinking and media literacy through discussion. Whether you’re curious about making historical dramas, musicals, or even old-school mysteries part of your learning routine, this episode is packed with ideas (plus a long list of family favorites!) to inspire your own movie nights—and maybe help you see movies as more than just “screen time.”
So, grab your popcorn and get ready for a heartfelt, insightful look at how movies can transform more than just your evening—they can enrich your homeschool journey, too!
