PART 1 – Comprehension questions in chronological order. I have made two sets for differentiation. The multiple-choice questions may also work well with ESL/ELL students. Answer keys included.
- 35 questions requiring full sentence answers.
- 35 multiple choice questions with 3 possible answers.
PART 2 – Storyboard and Hopper profile (creativity)
- Students to create a 9-scene storyboard, illustrating pivotal events from the movie at the beginning, middle and ending. Each scene should include a short sentence describing the action taking place. Use the movie questions to guide sequencing.
- Students create a profile of an animal they would like to "hop" into, including a detailed drawing and physical description. They must justify their animal choice and write a short narrative describing their first adventure in that body.
PART 3 – Beaver fact sheet application & creative response
- Students use the provided Beaver Fact Sheet to complete a side-view drawing, vocabulary matching, written description, and creative diary entry that reinforce key adaptations, behaviors, and vocabulary.
PART 4 – Just for fun word search puzzle.
- There are 15 words/connected words for students to find in the word search. First, they must unscramble 10 words followed by answering the 5 clues for the rest. Answers included.
The movie is about Mabel, an animal lover who uses technology to "hop" her consciousness into a robotic beaver. Driven by a deep bond with nature, she goes undercover to protect her woodland friends and uncover mysteries within an animal world beyond her imagination.
