This movie begins from a woman Mrs Erin Gruwell who accepts a position teaching
freshman and sophomore English at Woodrow Wilson High School in Long Beach, Calif.
Mrs Erin Gruwell is a young teacher has idealistic character, has high spirit and a person who
has a high education. There was just a Los Angeles riots in 1992 its about 2 years ago and
the impact felt in the Mrs Gruwell class. There is a lot of typical students in her class with a
different problems. The big problem is there is a gang, Hispanics, blacks, Asians, and one
white guy. The white guy just wants to leave, and the Hispanics, blacks, and Asians have
taken their gang warfare from the streets into the classroom.
Mrs Gruwell think the student actually have a lot of potential, they dont need a
homework or test to improve their potential. Bad situation in their region just made them to
be a bad student. They fighting with another gang just to help their friend. The first way that
Mrs Gruwell use to handle her students with give the student a journal diary. Mrs Gruwell
ask to her students to write their problems, their feeling, to their diary every day and keep
their diary in a wardrobe. Every night Mrs Gruwell read their diary and know the problem of
each student. After that Mrs Gruwell teaching them about the Holocaust and having them
read The Diary of Anne Frank. The students held a "Read-a-Thon for Tolerance" to get a
money to invite Miep Gies to their school, the woman who hid Anne Frank's family. They
also visited by Zlata Filipovic. These students get tremendous recognition from the media and
from the government. Students travel to New York to receive the award. In 1999, The
students also went to Europe to visited the Anne Frank House. This all succes happen
because the preseverance of Mrs Gruwell.
This movie is based on real story and has a moral value. This movie is strongly ha a
focus on rebukes racism and inner city gang activity so from that focus we can get moral
value. One of the most encouraging messages was the fact that the students gained
knowledge about the truth and higher moral values, and then applied what they learned to
their own lives and the people around them. Its more important to get a moral value firts then
a formal education. But i think this movie is too serious. There is less humour.

to a fight with Cheng. Mr Han thinks and agree a challenges in the next tournament with an
engagement Cheng will never ofend Dre again. The days before the tournament, Mr Han
teach Dre about kung fu with unique ways. It begins with the movement of wearing and untie
the jackets. Under the unique and unorthodox guidance of Mr. Han, Dre learns well, and his
chances in the tournament actually look pretty good. And dre won the tournament.
This movie is an interesting especialy for them whose like an action and kung fu
movie. The problem is not too complicated so the viewers can enjoy the movie because it is
easy to understand the plot. I like this movie beside the actor Jaden Smith is cute, this movie
inspire me to dont easy to give up. We can see in the struggle of Dre to learn kung fu that he
never knew before. This movie also give a moral value like dont underestimate with
somerthing although it seen noh has impact but sometimes a little thing that we can do is has
an impact too.
