Product description

From the author

Use this three-page The Devil Wears Prada 2 PDF guide for intermediate or advanced English learners. Students record film information and ten new words with meanings, describe named characters, build a timeline and write about a favorite scene.

A personal review and a prompt for three diary pages from one character’s perspective extend the writing. Arrange film access separately and provide extra paper for the diary response. ESL with Alan.

Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

  • Students record basic production information about the film (director, genre, cast, release year) in complete written responses.

  • Students build vocabulary by recording ten new words from the film alongside their meanings.

  • Students describe ten named characters from the film and sequence key events on a movie timeline.

Teaching tips

  • Assign the character grid after the first viewing, since it asks students to describe ten named characters including Miranda Priestly, Andrea "Andy" Sachs and Emily Charlton.

  • Use the movie-timeline activity as a whole-class recap before students move to the individual review and diary sections.

  • Model one diary entry as a class first — each diary page should retell a different scene of the film from the chosen character's perspective.

Skills covered

  • Vocabulary acquisition — ten new words encountered while watching the film are logged and defined in a matching meanings list.

  • Character analysis — students profile ten named characters, from Miranda Priestly to Nigel Kipling, in their own words.

  • Event sequencing — students place scenes from the film in order on a movie timeline.
