Curriculum

Sprockets Toronto International Film Festival for Children works with education experts to ensure our films, workshops and special guest speakers address contemporary social issues and provide a wealth of synergistic programming designed to focus on the Ontario educational curriculum. To extend the Sprockets experience into the classroom, we continue to collect and produce curriculum based on film and media literacy that aim to address:

Character Education
Cultural Perspective
Science and Environmental Studies
Socio-Economic Equity Studies
Media Literacy
Writing

This curriculum is designed for cross-course flexibility helping teachers to use film to educate and address the media literacy component of the Ontario curriculum.
