A Wrinkle in Time Movie Guide | Questions | Worksheet (PG - 2018)

A Wrinkle in Time Movie Guide | Questions | Worksheet (PG - 2018) challenges students to analyze and learn life lessons from Madeleine L’Engle’s 1962 classic novel. Explore how and why the characters treat each other the way they do and encourage students to put themselves into the characters shoes and make their own decisions. Ask students to pick one of the many great quotes throughout the movie and apply it to their lives.

Note: The final question, number 12 requires students to have read the novel. If they haven’t please skip the final page of the movie guide.

This resource consists of 12 high-level, short answer reflection and essay questions that will do more than just ask your students to regurgitate information.

  *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
