Since you guys will officially be 8th graders as of Friday, I think now is a great time to watch the trailer for a movie called "8th Grade." This movie is 2 years old and had an actual 8th grader playing the character. Some of you may have seen the film already, all I'm asking you to do is watch the trailer, attached below. The movie was very famous and well received by audiences because of it's accurate portrayal of what being a student around your age is actually like.

I'm also attaching an article about the movie that is OPTIONAL to read, if you'd like to know more about the film. It does contain spoilers however, so if you do want to watch the film after seeing the trailer and don't want to ruin anything, keep that in mind.

Watch the video, and answer the question on the Google Doc.
