| How We Determine Our Grades | |
After watching a movie with your children or students, we encourage parents and teachers to look for education opportunities to teach with movies. Here are a few discussion topics that can help with lesson plans or teaching in the home.
What things do the Croods do to protect themselves against animals and the elements? What measures does you family take to keep everyone safe? How does this family work together to ensure their survival?
Why is Eep more willing to listen to Guy than her father? Does a girl/woman’s allegiance always change when she falls in love? What does Guy do to strengthen the relationship between Eep and her father?
How does Grug show love to his family? Is it a parent’s role to worry about their offspring? In what other ways do fathers (and mothers) show love for their children? How can changes to environmental, physical and economic circumstances affect families?
