Description
The Maze Runner Movie Guide | Questions | Worksheet (PG13 - 2014) challenges students to put themselves in the shoes of Thomas, Alby, Newt and Gally in an attempt to analyze their decision making. Explore the relationship between Thomas's and Gally's intentions and outcomes. Ask students to consider if Dr. Ava Paige's means justified her ends. This movie is an adaptation of James Dashner's 2009 dystopian novel of the same name.
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.
This product includes:
- A student movie guide, PDF printer friendly version (4 pages)
- An answer key (4 pages) IS included with this movie guide, however many answers will vary as students are encouraged to construct their own meaning from the characters' dialogue and behavior.
- A generic movie guide permission slip (1 page)
- A Google Slides Version of the Movie Guide
- CCSS alignment indicating standards met, PDF (1 page - see also preview image)
- 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.

- Discourage students from simply copying answers.
- Randomly choose a student to share their answer and defend it if necessary.
- If time allows, feel free to rewind and show important parts of the movie again for additional analysis.
- After completing the short answers, allow 5-10 minutes for each essay question at the end of the film.
