Literary Analysis Using Short Films | ELA Secondary

I love to use these short films as a way to review literary elements with my students OR a way to introduce the concept of analysis. Sometimes, my students find it easier and less “scary” to analyze a film rather than a piece of literature.Each short film comes with a sheet of questions for students to review topics such as:•Connotation •Social Commentary •Tone •Symbolism •Theme •Characterization •Flashbacks •Author’s Purpose •And more!  You'll also receive a link to a digital Google Slides product that you can share with students!These questions will push students to think outside of the box and actually analyze/apply what they’ve learned!I’ve included an answer key, but please know that these assignments are analysis-based. Therefore, answers will always vary. Subjective responses are a part of the beauty of an analysis.You’ll need access to the following films. I’ve included multiple links to each short film just in case a link becomes “broken”. LambsNuggetsSnack AttackSoarThe Litt
