Quizlet: Beauty and the Beast Lesson

[Directions: In my classes, my students were all very familiar with this movie already, so I was able to use that familiarity to set-up things very quickly.  I put on video 1, paused it a couple of times near the beginning to elicit the plot points from the students (i.e. the Beast has forbidden Belle to go into the West Wing.  Belle is going into the West Wing, so the Beast is going to be mad, etc.)  Then played the rest of video 1.

Before playing video 2, I gave the students the gist question orally: "Why is Belle upset?  Why is the Beast upset?"

Then after the gist, the students answer the detail questions.  Then a quick vocabulary matching activity.  Then students write in the missing words from the script, and listen to check their answers.  Then a sorting activity for past advice and present advice.  And then some Concept Checking Questions.]
