Dumbo Movie Guide | Questions | Worksheet (PG – 2019) challenges students to analyze the characters, their decisions, their flaws, and how they change throughout the movie. Examine the way this movie uses anthropomorphism to help viewers connect with Dumbo and what elements of Dumbo’s character a real elephant would share. Ask students to identify the poetic justice in the film and think about how Milly’s scientific view of the world helps Dumbo eventually be reunited with his mom.

This resource consists of 11 high-level, short answer and essay questions that will do more than just ask your students to regurgitate information. See the preview file for high resolution sample questions.

This product .zip file includes:

  • A student movie guide, PDF digital fillable form version (4 pages)
  • A student movie guide, PDF print version  (4 pages)
  • An answer key (4 pages) 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.

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.
  • Host the file. I used google drive to share a folder with students.
  • When complete, ask students to save the file in a designated google drive folder using a naming convention. (I use LastnameFirstnameMovieGuide.pdf)
