Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark

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.

The premise for this movie centers on the Ark of the Covenant, built by Moses and the Children of Israel after they left Egypt. Because you can’t believe everything you read in a script, be sure to look up the account found in the Bible. It includes a description of the gold-covered chest, what it carried, and some of the extraordinary incidents it was involved in.
