CyberEnglish: Film Studies

Film icon

Using movies as a learning tool can be one of the powerful resources you can use, as long as it's done interactively with your students.

Just running the video tape for the length of the movie usually doesn't "cut it"; however, these worksheets require that the students pay closer attention to certain features of the movie, and the PAUSE button on the VCR can be your "best friend" for effective instruction. Simply pausing at key points and discussing them will work wonders with your students' film comprehension!

Feel free to use any of the following worksheets for your class and modify them to suit your needs.
