Exploring Justice and Intuition in Senior English: 12 Angry Men Discussion

In our Senior English class, we engage in thought-provoking discussions inspired by the film "12 Angry Men." Through analyzing prejudice, justice, and intuition, we question if our legal system is truly just. Students participate in interactive activities, like clicker questions and note-taking, to deepen their understanding of the jurors' perspectives. With no homework assigned, the focus remains on meaningful conversations, reinforcing the idea that failure is a chance to learn, as stated by Henry Ford. Prepare for a comprehensive Vocabulary Final while enjoying our unique discussions.
