Fifty Film Guides

IntoFilm, a site for using films in school, has a list of fifty film guides along with creative ideas for you to use at home with your children as an additional resource. See their details and link below.

As the coronavirus/COVID-19 situation continues across the UK, we recognise that many schools will be closed, and many parents will be looking for ways to keep their children meaningfully occupied outside of school time.

Many of our film guides - which are designed as informal discussion prompts for after viewing a film - also feature extension activities that children and young people can take part in on their own, without the need for constant supervision. Below, we've collected 50 film guides with extension activities to help keep young people of all ages engaged. 

Many of the films are titles we believe people are likely to own on DVD, but where possible, we'll also point out some that are currently available to view on streaming services.

Olympic Trials

Science Fair 

After spending three weeks delving into the depths of Magnets and Forces, all three year 3 classes challenged themselves to create group projects that demonstrated their scientific understanding.  

Magnets

Year 3s have been experimenting with magnets to see which is the strongest as well as proving their magnetic fields.

Pugs of the Frozen North 

In English, we have been reading Pugs of the Frozen North. Here are some tableaus that year 3 have been creating! 

Architecture Workshop

As part of our enrichment for history, Year 3s enjoyed building pyramids from sticks and elastic bands!

Circus skills

Year 3s enjoyed a fun workshop which encouraged team building and resilience skills.
