12 Essential English – Hero and Villain Pop Culture Unit – Quotes from Into the Spiderverse (2018)

A table I made containing quotes from key characters in the film which students can come back to when writing their review for evidence of character VABs (Values, Attitudes and Beliefs).

To save on printing, I put one copy on the word wall in the classroom and one copy on the class One Note for students to access digitally.

Context: A lesson designed for use in a 12 Essential English classroom in Queensland, Australia as part of Unit 4: “Representations and popular culture texts.” During this unit students learned about Hero and Villain films and how filmmakers use cinematic techniques to portray them and create an intended message. Their assessment at the end of this unit was to write a 4-6 minute multimodal (speech) to be delivered live or pre-recorded reviewing one of the three films shown within the unit.

Films focused on in this particular year: Wonder Woman & Into the Spiderverse
