E.T. The Extra Terrestrial Movie Guide + Activities - Answer Key Included

This 11 page movie guide with handouts accompanies the film "E.T The Extra-Terrestrial (1982)".

★★ Check out the full preview! ★★

This guide may also work well as a sub plan for your substitute teacher.

Part 1 - Consists of 6 questions all on the subject of aliens to be completed before the movie. The students get 20 minutes to complete this part, then discuss together as a class. The idea is that the students become familiar with vocabulary related to aliens as well as listening to other opinions and beliefs.

Part 2 Comprehension questions in chronological order. I have made two sets for differentiation. The multiple choice questions will also work well with ESL/ELL students. Answer keys included.

• 30 questions requiring full sentence answers
• 30 multiple choice questions with 3 possible answers

Part 3 – Storyboard and Synopsis

• Students to draw a 6 scene storyboard of what they believe to be the most important parts in the movie. To include a brief description for each scene. Remind students they can look at the movie questions to remind them of the sequences.
• Synopsis. Using their storyboards as guides, students to write a synopsis of the movie.

This movie is based on a group of aliens who visit earth with one of them being left behind and stranded on this planet. The alien is found by a 10 year old boy, Elliott. Soon the two begin to communicate, and start a different kind of friendship.

How can movies help students learn English?

Learning from movies is motivating and enjoyable

- Sometimes students need a change in style, and movies are generally an integral

part of a student's life.

Movies provides authentic and varied language

- It's always a good idea to introduce students examples of English in real

situations. This includes accents different to your own.

Movies gives a visual context

- This gives the student the ability to interpret the language in full visual context.

To see such visual supports as facial expressions and gestures simultaneously.

Variety and flexibility

- Movies can also act as a springboard for follow-up tasks such as discussions,

debates on social issues, role plays, reconstructing a dialogue or summarising.
