Pre-Watching Reflections

Worksheet Description

Prepare for an exciting journey from text to screen with this pre-viewing worksheet.

Before watching the movie adaptation of a story, students are invited to share their predictions and expectations. They’ll explore their preferences between the book and the movie, envision the setting and appearance of characters, consider elements that might be omitted or added, and reflect on the challenges of translating certain aspects from book to film.

This activity encourages students to engage actively with the upcoming adaptation, fostering critical thinking and imaginative analysis. As they progress to watching the movie, students can reflect on their initial predictions and compare them to the actual cinematic interpretation, deepening their understanding of storytelling adaptations.
