The Peanut Butter Falcon Movie Guide | Questions | Worksheet (PG – 2019) challenges students to think about how individuals and society should view and treat people with Down syndrome. This touching story explores the growing relationship between two young men and what they both teach each other throughout the film. Ask students to evaluate how society supported Zak in the movie and what they think the level of support should be for someone like Zak in the real world.
