Cathy HCreated by CathyCreated by Cathy

Overview

Description


· How is our obsession with bigger and more destroying the world?

· What can we do to stop the planet being lost?

· Is true love possible even in the bleakest of times?

· Are machines taking over?

· How can art (film) send a serious warning?


This complete teaching unit supports learning using the acclaimed animated children’s film, Wall-E, created in 2008 and directed by Andrew Stanton. The film imagines a bleak future in which a lone robot exists in an uninhabitable Earth caused by the wasteful lives of humans.


This comprehensive Teacher Pack – Wall-E equips educators of secondary students to deliver high-quality student learning experiences (primarily for the English/Media learning area with multidisciplinary approaches possible) to unpack the key messages of the film, culminating in two possible assessment items – an individual persuasive speech or a group inquiry task.
