About this resource
What's inside this resource
This resource is the Movie Edition for the this or that game.
On each slide, students will be presented with 2 movie options. They will click on the link to hear the theme of each movie to decide which movie they like better.
There are 5 blank templates at the end for you to include your own options.

Teaching tips & learning objectives
Learning objectives
Listen to two linked movie theme clips and compare them before making a choice.
Practice a drag-and-drop interaction by moving an on-screen checkmark onto a preferred option.
Teaching tips
Run the file in presentation/slideshow mode so the "Click here to hear the theme" audio links play as intended.
Use the practice checkmark on the directions slide before starting the real rounds, so students understand the drag-and-drop interaction first.
Use the five blank slides at the end to swap in movie themes more familiar to your class, or build pairs on a different topic entirely.
Since the file is an editable PowerPoint, reorder or remove any of the eleven built-in movie pairs that don't suit your group before presenting.
Skills covered
Active listening — students listen to a linked theme clip for each of two movie options before choosing.
Digital interaction — students drag and drop an on-screen checkmark to record their selection within the presentation.
Preference articulation — students choose between two options and can be prompted to explain the reasoning behind their choice.
Good to know
Questions teachers ask about this resource
Do the movie-theme slides include actual audio, or just the movie titles to choose from?
Each of the eleven slides includes a "Click here to hear the theme" link for both options, so students listen to the actual theme music rather than choosing from titles alone.
Can the five blank slides at the end be used for something other than movies?
Yes — they're provided as open templates, so a teacher can build custom "this or that" pairs on any topic, not only movie themes.
