Under the Same Moon Movie Guide | Worksheet | Questions (PG13 - 2007) challenges students to think like a director, connect to complex characters and evaluate choices characters make throughout the movie. Explore Enrique’s character arc as he develops from a hardened heart to a self sacrificing protector. Write persuasive paragraphs about suitable titles for this movie and finally, research immigration laws and how they affect people in Rosario’s situation.
Teacher’s Note: This movie guide is completely in English. Although this movie is mostly in Spanish, the subtitles on the film make it suitable for students who have zero or limited ability to understand Spanish.
This resource consists of 12 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)
*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 Slides Version of the Movie Guide
*A generic, editable movie guide permission slip
*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 are not reading they are asked to perform the same cognitive functions on the content that they consumed from the movie.
**Distance Learning Tips:
- Distribute the Google Slides 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
