This guide may also work well as a sub plan for your substitute teacher.

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
• 34 multiple choice questions with 3 possible answers. (Q14 requires a full sentence answer)

PART 2 – Storyboard and synopsis

• Students to draw a 9 scene storyboard of what they believe to be the most important parts in the movie. To include a brief description for each scene. Remind students they can look at the movie questions to help with the sequences.
• Using their storyboards as guides, students to write a synopsis of the movie.

PART 3 – Creative writing (characters and newspaper report)

• Students to write about one of the characters following the question prompts as well as drawing a picture of their chosen character.
• Students to imagine they are junior reporters located in Thebes. Students imagine they interview Hercules and Phil who want to tell their story about the final battle with Hades and the Titans. Students write a short article including quotes from the interview and a drawing.

The animated movie follows the life of Hercules. After being stripped of his immortality while still a baby, Hercules endures hardships to try and find his true self and ultimately become a true hero in order to reclaim his position on Mt. Olympus.
