Movie Talk Notes Activity

After presenting a MovieTalk/Clip chat, what’s your next step? If you use screenshots to present a video (which is usually my preferred way), then you are already halfway there. Organize the important screenshots on a slide and leave room for students to write underneath the picture. I’ve done this before to have students work with partners to re-tell the story, but another option is to have them write the description of the scene or the phrase as part of a note-taking activity. This allows the students to physically write out the main phrases and vocabulary you are targeting.MovieTalk Notes You can type the list in a quizlet set or in an excel spreadsheet and pass them out as the “answer key” for students to find the correct phrase to write underneath. For this example, I’ve use the video “Decaf” about a cat who gets addicted to coffee. Here is the set of terms students had to write. I made a class copy and folded it in half so students were just looking at the Spanish side at first. Here is my El gato con cafe for notetaking worksheet for students to write on.
