Hey All,

Here's one of my lessons for the new semester. I realized I haven't done a film-based lesson in a while, so I figured it was time for a new one. I found an excellent short film called "Death Sails" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBmlLKzMA_s). The general lesson plan goes like this-

1.) Briefly talk about piracy and pirates.
2.) Look at a few pictures from the short film.
3.) The students write a short story and share it with the class, based on the pictures.
4.) Watch the film and talk about it.
5.) Learn new vocabulary and complete a short worksheet.

I've included all of the materials including a detailed lesson plan, PPT, and worksheet. Hope this helps!

Thank you for the lesson. Your lessons are always so well done and my students love them. :)

Thanks for the kind words! I've got a couple more lessons I'm in the midst of working on, one on UFO's and the other on extreme sports and I think they should be neat too. I'm glad your students are enjoying them!
