This Animal Farm movie guide challenges students to get the most out of their viewing experience. This guide is for the 1999 film version of George Orwell's 1945 classic novel. Are your students studying the Russian Revolution or communism? Afterwards, treat them by viewing this entertaining, shocking and powerful film. Watch as students grapple with the meaning of communism and its effects.

This resource consists of 10 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 print version (4 pages)
* A student movie guide, PDF digital fillable form version (4 pages)
*An answer key is included with this movie guide, however many answers will vary as students are encouraged to construct their own meaning from the characters' dialogue and behavior. See the preview for samples.
*A Google Forms & Slides Version of the Movie Guide
*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

We used to teach Animal Farm to compliment US History. History still teaches the Russian Revolution, but with a district curriculum change, we no longer teach Animal Farm. I wanted to do a super quick lesson about Animal Farm and decided to use the 1999 film as lit. This guide is a nice way to lead the kidlets through many of the most important elements of the text. Thank you!
