The Sound Of Music ~ Movie Guide + Quiz + Word Search + Overhead

"Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life."

Berthold Auerbach

(German poet and author ~ 1812 - 1882)

These follow-along questions go with the 1965 movie The Sound of Music starring Julie Andrews and Christopher Plummer.

You get:

♪ An introductory overhead so that students can put the film in historical perspective

♪ The follow-along question sheet with 20 questions all on one page

♪ An answer key

♪ A follow-up overhead giving some Fact vs. Fiction points about the film - some Hollywood embellishments to make the film more appealing to moviegoers

♪ A follow-up word search activity

♪ An answer key for the word search

♪ An easy-to-grade multiple choice quiz on the facts of the story

♪ An answer key for the quiz.

Having students select from multiple choice answers allows

more time for their eyes to stay on the film and not spend

it looking down writing out answers and, thus, not miss

important moments in the film.

Did you know that those were not the real names of the von Trapp children ?

You can find out what they were really called on the post-viewing overhead.

Everything is ready-to-use to make your job easier. (17 pages)

♪ Please Note

The family's story has also been told by Agathe, the oldest daughter ~
