$4.89
This Romeo and Juliet Movie Guide | Questions | Worksheet (PG – 1968) enlivens Shakespeare’s famous classic and challenges students to analyze parts of the story that may otherwise be viewed and quickly forgotten. Explore and compare the flirtations and expressions of love between Romeo and Juliet and couples in today’s modern time. Ask students to determine what general lessons can be learned from the Prince’s final monologue and the ongoing, senseless war between the Capulets and Montagues.
Note: This movie guide is for the 1968, Zeffirelli film, *NOT* the 1996 Luhrmann film starring Leonardo DiCaprio. My movie guide for the 1996 version can be found here.
This product .zip file includes:
- A student movie guide, PDF print version (5 pages)
- A Google Slides Version of the Movie Guide
- An answer key (5 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.
- 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.
Distance Learning Tips:
- Distribute the digital PDF file or the google forms version to each student
- Use the screen sharing tool on your group call software to play the movie
- Pause the movie at each question to give students time to write/discuss
