A Wrinkle in Time Movie Guide | Questions | Worksheet | Google Slides (PG – 2018) challenges students to analyze and learn life lessons from Madeleine L’Engle’s 1962 classic novel. Explore how and why the characters treat each other the way they do and encourage students to put themselves into the characters shoes and make their own decisions. Ask students to pick one of the many great quotes throughout the movie and apply it to their lives.

Note: The final question, number 12 requires students to have read the novel. If they haven’t please skip the final page of the movie guide.
