    Chalk

    by bookwormbeth

    Chalk is a funny "mocumentary" style film about the first three years of teaching. It was written and filmed by a couple of guys who taught high school for three years. It is a really well done independent film. It has received awards at many film festivals and all positive reviews. Teachers get discounts with ID.
