World War BUNDLE - Short Films - Film Analysis - Poetry - Reading - Writing
Wanting a thematic unit on our World Wars? We've put together two short films, a scene analysis resource AND THEN added a bonus file that includes two famous war poems, a bit of reading, research and some writing templates. Plenty of choice, plenty of differentiation. Enjoy!
(Note: The first task in the hodgepodge booklet is an anticipatory reading activity for a NZ School Journal article. This is referenced but you will need to access it yourself. It is one small activity on one page, however, so if you can't find it, rest assured you're still getting a fantastic resource.)
This BUNDLE includes the following resources:
⭐ Short film study - "Falling Sparrows", directed by Murray Keane
⭐ Short film study - "Tama Tū", directed by Taika Waititi
⭐ Movie Manipulation - Film scene analysis (any film), however we've analysed "Falling Sparrows" as an example for students.
⭐ A BONUS FILE - available only in this bundle - which includes:
- An anticipatory reading activity for a school journal article (article referenced by not included)

Sharing/Copying this Resource
Feel free to purchase just one for your department - no need for a copy for each teacher. However:
- Please do NOT share with the school down the road.
- Please do NOT take it with you to a new school.
- Feel free to suggest the website to others - that'd be great!
That's pretty fair we think! Let's help each other out. :)
