A Raisin in the Sun Movie Guide | Questions | Worksheet (NR - 1961) explores the plethora of educational concepts in this classic movie. Challenge students to sympathize as Walter Lee struggles with his expectations of life. Dig deep into the philosophy of how to live a happy and content life and what roles money, love and family should play in it. Ask students to think about the historical context of Ruth’s idea to abort her baby.

This resource consists of 14 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 (5 pages)
  • A student movie guide, PDF digital fillable form version (5 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 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
