Description

Cool Runnings Movie Guide | Questions | Worksheet | Google Slides (PG - 1993) challenges students to learn life lessons of confidence and self-acceptance. Discuss the character traits, strengths and weaknesses of each member of the first Jamaican bobsled team. Explore the value of having goals, working hard to achieve them and how it affects the community at large. Ask students to apply the lesson Coach Irv teaches Derice about being content with who you are and not trying to fill a void with gold medals.

Check the preview file for high resolution sample questions to see if this movie guide is suitable for your students. This resource consists of 12 high-level, short answer reflection and essay questions that will do more than just ask your students to regurgitate information.

Although this movie guide doesn't have many ratings yet, please don't be overly concerned as it was posted more recently than my other resources. Please visit MY STORE to see over 4,000 ratings with a perfect ★★★★★ average.

This product includes:

  • An EASEL by TPT version of the student movie guide (compatible with Google Classroom)
  • A single, 11 page .PDF file consisting of:
  • A student movie guide (4 pages)
  • An answer key (4 pages)
  • CCSS alignment indicating standards met (1 page)
  • A PDF with link to a Google Slides version (1 page)
  • An About TeacherTravis Intro (1 page)

CCSS Note: I’ve taken the liberty of aligning certain reading standards with the act of consuming content via the movie instead. Although students aren’t reading they are asked to perform the same cognitive functions on the content that they consumed from the movie.

General Tips for Using the Print version of this Movie Guide:

  1. Print one, double-sided movie guide for each student
  2. Preview the next question on the movie guide as you complete each one, this can help students pay attention to important upcoming events.
  3. Pause at the times designated on the movie guide, encourage students to debate, discuss and talk about their ideas before writing their answers.
  4. Discourage students from simply copying answers.
  5. Randomly choose a student to share their answer and defend it if necessary.
  6. If time allows, feel free to rewind and show important parts of the movie again for additional analysis.
  7. After completing the short answers, allow 5-10 minutes for each essay question at the end of the film.
  8. On average, this movie guide will require about 45-60 minutes in addition to the length of the movie.
