Dolores Documentary Movie Guide | Questions | Worksheet (NR – 2017) examines the life of Dolores Huerta: a dancer on the stage of justice. Think critically about concepts such as labor rights and environmental movements, boycotting, self-love and revolution, sacrifice and the importance of acknowledging and remembering Dolores. Finally, challenge students to write a 60 second speech as Dolores to persuade people to join the grape boycott using what they learned from the film.

Note: See IMDB’s listing for this film here.

Digital Version Tips

  • It is intended for a paperless, 1:1 tablet/iPad classroom
  • Ask students to download a PDF editor app if they don’t already have one. It needs to have a save function as well. I used Foxit PDF.
