I'll agree also, but before that it was the reel projector. And if you had time and your teacher was cool, you'd get to watch the movie backwards. 😂

How true. I remember the projectors too. Somewhere around middle school they switched to TV/VCR.

Yep. I don't think I ever saw another show on projector once I graduated from elementary school. 😞

I loved those Disney Driver instruction Movies ..

Ok, this thread pains me..............We were watching movies via film projectors all through high school and even had a few in J.C.. 🤦

I remember film strips ...

Don't recall any TV's in the classroom at all.

Haaaaaa! Completely agree!

What, and none of you where A/V Club Geeks? In 6th Grade, I was the A/V guy for the entire elementry school. Every morning I would get a notice if a movie was being shown and what time. Also if a slide projector had to be delivered to a class room and setup. Got to leave class to run the reel projector all the time. Loved it.

In HS though, it would have been the "kiss of death" to join the A/V Club. Never touched the stuff after 6th grade.

^ Me too, for sixth grade it was a plum job and the little kids thought you were cool. I was a crossing guard as well, the hours sucked but the power! HAhahahaha....
