| 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.
How do people’s opinion of George and Ted change at the end of the movie? How does fame or accomplishment change the impressions of others? Is this a fair assessment?
The little monkey is constantly getting into trouble, yet seldom faces any consequences for his behavior. How realistic is this portrayal? What would happen to you if you tried some of his antics?
Notice the name on the ship in this movie—“H.A. Rey.” If you check the cover of your Curious George books, you’ll discover he is the author who, along with his wife Margaret, created this cute character. For more information on this amazing couple, and their incredible story of coming to America, check this link.
