Dead Poets Society

Anything by Harry Wong. Here is his website, it’s great: Don’t let the name fool you. We used to giggle over it in college…But these are instructional type videos. They are great for new teachers, in fact our district gives a copy of “The First Days of School” to all of their new teachers. Best investment I ever made as a teacher, other than college of course. I have only been teaching for 3 years but I read it at the begining of each year (glad you reminded me). But there are many inspirational movies about teaching.
