FernGully: The Last Rain Forest Movie Guide | Questions | Worksheet (G - 1992)

FernGully: The Last Rain Forest Movie Guide | Questions | Worksheet (G – 1992) asks students to connect the concepts in this movie to the real world. Challenge students to think about Hexxus and what happened to Ralph and Tony in the Leveler to the way humans sometimes act in the real world. Encourage students to apply what they have learned about context to what characters say in the film. For example when Batty tells Zak, “Truth doesn’t always win friends, but it certainly influences people.” Examine the lyrics to Batty’s song and ask students to identify rhyming pairs and unfamiliar vocabulary.

This resource consists of 11 high-level, short answer and essay questions that will do more than just ask your students to regurgitate information.

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.
• A generic movie guide permission slip (1 page)

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)
