ESL Movie Guide Worksheets - Toy Story 5

Record a film's director, genre, cast and release year from its titles and credits

Collect ten unfamiliar words heard in the film and write a meaning for each

Describe ten named characters in a few lines apiece, distinguishing who each one is

Give a personal opinion in writing — a favourite scene, why it appealed, and an overall review

Write in role, retelling three scenes from a chosen character's point of view with their thoughts and feelings

The vocabulary section is two matched columns, so it is meant to be filled during viewing and completed afterwards; agree with the class when to pause

Ten character boxes is a lot for one student, so splitting the page across pairs or groups and pooling the descriptions afterwards keeps the task moving

The credits header can be completed straight from the opening or closing titles, which makes it a settling task before the film starts

The diary task is the only extended piece and asks for three pages, so it works better as homework or a following lesson than as a post-viewing filler

Every section is a blank frame rather than a question, so the difficulty can be set by how much detail is required rather than by changing the sheet

Vocabulary capture in context — students log ten new words heard during the film and supply a meaning for each in the matching column.

Character description — ten boxes carry a named character apiece, so students write short descriptions that distinguish Buzz Lightyear from Woody, Forky from Atlas, and so on.

Sequencing events — a Movie Timeline section asks students to lay out the film's events in order rather than summarise them in prose.

Opinion writing — three linked frames move students from naming a favourite scene to giving reasons and then to a full personal review.

Writing in role — the diary task requires three pages from one character's point of view, capturing that character's thoughts, emotions and experiences across three different scenes.
