Product description
From the author
This packet has four student activity pages and a cover, for use with a suitable teacher-selected movie. It provides structured viewing responses for a prepared substitute lesson.
The movie worksheets require students to respond to the movie every 10 minutes with a summary, character analysis, or questions such as...
-What events happened in this section? Have you experienced anything like that?
-Do you agree/disagree with the message of this section?
-What can you learn from this section and how can you apply it to your life?
-A summary of the section
-What you liked the best/worst in that section
-What characters were in this section? Are you like them in any way?
There are 6 different question prompts for students to use to guide their answers. This is a great way to differentiate by expecting students to answer different questions or to utilize vocabulary words in the responses.
The final page of the packet is an open area for students to doodle and fill with words and pictures about the theme of the video. Prepare the movie and selected prompts before leaving the lesson for a substitute.
