This is a movie watch along to go with Pixar's Wall-E! While watching the movie, students will analyze the Point of View the story is told from, and Eve's attitude towards Wall-E. Students will have to identify which point of view (1st Person, 2nd Person, or 3rd Person) the story is told from and describe how they know. Then they will describe Eve's attitude towards Wall-E at the beginning of the story and how it changes throughout the story and what events cause those changes.

**Doodle-Notes - While watching the movie, students will take notes on events that help them identify the POV and attitude at the beginning, middle, and end. Students will doodle their notes instead of just writing like traditional note-taking. This is to help students develop note-taking skills and keep them on task.**

This is a great product to help keep students engaged and focused during the movie and practice their reading comprehension skills. I hope you enjoy it! Please rate and review.

This is a 55-page set of worksheets for the story "The Little Prince" by Antoine de Saint-Exupery.

Primarily, I used the version of the story that was translated by Richard Howard, so these materials should align with Richard Howard's translation. Of course, these materials can also be used with Katherine Woods' translation, although there will be a few minor differences, such as some specific words in a quotation here or there.

For each set of three chapters (C1-C3, C4-C6, ...), there are two worksheets:

* comprehension questions

* vocabulary and story analysis

In addition, this novel study includes a wide variety of differentiated worksheets and activities:

* story review

* similes

* personification

* story reflection

* theme

* motif

* symbols

* quotations
