Movie Madness: Create Your Own Movie!
Instead of watching a movie, I had students create their own. They give it a name, describe the main characters, and introduce the plot (what will happen?). They can then draw a movie poster to advertise it. This was a fabulous activity for my middle school ESL students! Enjoy.
