Ciao Alberto Pixar Short Video Guide (G – 2021) challenges students to analyze this 8 minute Pixar animation. Think like a director and describe how despite Alberto’s mistakes, the viewer still wants to see him succeed. Ask students to put themselves in Alberto’s shoes and summarize the experiences he has had with Massimo as he writes a letter to his best friend Luca.

This resource consists of 4 high-level short answer questions that will do more than just ask your students to regurgitate information. See the thumbnail images for sample questions.

This product .zip file includes:

A student movie guide, PDF print version (1 page)
An answer key (1 page) is included, however, some answers will vary as students are encouraged to construct their own meaning throughout the film and many questions are open-ended.
A Google Slides Version of the Movie Guide
A generic movie guide permission slip (1 page)
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.
