In the Heights (Musical) Movie Guide in Spanish | Español (PG13 - 2021) challenges students to analyze characters, their dreams and how they change and grow throughout the film. Explore the tension and clashes that Nina has with her father and his plan for her future. Ask students to share what they consider ‘the best days of their lives’ and what they would do with a $96,000 lottery ticket. Interpret lyrics, identify metaphors and determine the significance of Usnavi’s repetition. Use a map of the Caribbean to place characters and create a Spanish glossary for frequently used terms.

This resource consists of 15 high-level, short answer and essay questions that will do more than just ask your students to regurgitate information.
