Motion Picture Study Guide for 6th and 7th Grade Language Arts and Social Studies  By: Stacie Siers, Chelsea Stone, and
Samuel Yount Introduction The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is an engaging and enjoyable film that has appeal to 7th grade students, while also being relevant to several areas of the North Carolina Standard Course of study. Some subject areas addressed in this guide include Language Arts and Social Studies. This guide is organized to clearly connect scenes to state standards. For example, the ELA Objective 1.02 states that students should respond to expressive materials that are read, heard, and/or viewed by making connections between works, self and related topics, and by drawing inferences/conclusions. The classroom activities in this guide are developmentally responsive and appeal to many different types of learners. The Association for Middle Level Education's This We Believe was used as a guideline to form these lessons. The lessons focus on young adolescents developmental needs, including but not limited to, cognitive-intellectual development skills such as decision making, and on moral development issues such as the transition from self-centered to others-centered. Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy all reflect different elements of these dimensions as they face various challenges in the story. Using this Guide This guide has been developed based on a concept called A.I.M.E.; the amount of invested mental energy or effort, developed by Gavriel Salomon. This movie guide is divided into short scenes that are designed to promote student engagement and help students interpret how they think and feel about the scene being viewed. Techniques and strategies like A.I.M.E. have been proven to increase student recall and comprehension if students are given clues and cues of what to focus on during the viewing scene. 
“Lucy discovers Narnia” Synopsis During World War II the Pevensie siblings are sent to live with a mysterious Professor in the country. Although the children are hesitant to leave their mother, when they arrive at the Professors mansion, they start to see the potential for adventure. On a rainy day game of hide-and-seek, little Lucy Pevensie hides in a wardrobe, but finds herself in a snowy parallel world. From the moment Lucy meets Mr. Tumnus in Narnia, the Pevensie sibling’s lives are changed. They find themselves in the middle of a long winter, in which Narnia has been ruled by Jadis, the evil White Witch. There is a prophecy in Narnia, which says that two sons of Adam and two daughters of Eve will defeat the White Witch and end the winter. The siblings go through many challenges, emotional and physical, while on their journey to meet Aslan, the King of Narnia, who provides them with guidance and confidence to help win the war. The children find the strength to overcome all their difficulties and are successful in defeating the White Witch. Characters 
Peter is the oldest of the Pevensie children. As the eldest, he serves the role of the father and is often there to comfort and console his younger siblings. The leadership role he plays for his family in the ordinary world shines through in Narnia as well. He is brave as well as humble and is ultimately crowned King Peter the Magnificent 
Susan is the second oldest of the Pevensie children. She is younger than Peter, but still very mature and pragmatic. During the sibling’s travels in Narnia, they are greeted by Father Christmas, who gives Susan arrows, which come in handy later during the war. She also is a witness of Aslan's death and resurrection. After many challenges, Susan is named Queen Susan the Gentle. 
Edmund is the troublemaker of the bunch. He is the second youngest and often feels neglected being the middle child. He is the first of the children to meet the White Witch who bribes him with candy to reveal information about his family. Edmund is the most dynamic character in The Chronicles of Narnia. At the end of the film he is declared King Edmund the Just. 
Lucy is portrayed by the actress Georgie Lucy is the youngest of her siblings. She was the first to discover Narnia and fell in love with the new world, as well as her friend Mr. Tumnus, who tried to turn her in to the White Witch. Lucy was distraught when her siblings did not believe her about Narnia, but was pleased to share it when they all made their way through the wardrobe. The siblings faced many struggles, and Lucy learned that she could be brave and had the courage do things that her older siblings could not. In the end, she was named Queen Lucy the Valiant. 
Mr. Tumnus is portrayed by actor James McAvoy. Mr. Tumnus is the first Narnian Character we meet, when Lucy makes her way through the wardrobe. He is kind to Lucy, but has been ordered by the White Witch to capture any human who makes their way to Narnia.

Mr. Tumnus takes a stand to side with Aslan and is thrown into jail for not obeying the Witch’s orders. 
Mr. & Mrs. Beaver’s voices are given by Ray Winstone and Dawn French. The beavers are a friendly, trustworthy face to the Pevensie children when they discover Mr. Tumnus has been arrested. Mr. Beaver leads them back to the Beaver’s home, where they meet Mrs. Beaver. The children are then told of the prophecy that they have come to fulfill, and take Narnia back from the White Witch. The Beaver’s are the children’s guide to Aslan, where they regroup to take on the White Witch and her armies. 
Aslan is the wise and powerful lion who befriends the Pevensie children. Actor Liam Neeson voices Aslan. Aslan is a magical and mysterious character who represents all that is good and just in Narnia. Aslan contrast the evil motives of the White Witch, and he seeks to dethrone her. Even though the Pevensie children feel an initial sense of anxiety when encountering Aslan, they quickly form a strong bond with the lion ruler. The children love Aslan because he is their protector and friend. When Edmund betrays Aslan, the lion offers his own life to save Edmund. After being tortured and killed by the White Witch, Aslan returns to life to help lead his army to victory over the evil forces of the witch. 
The White Witch is portrayed by actress Tilda Swinton. The White Witch is a representation of everything that is sinister in the world. As self-proclaimed Queen of Narnia, the Witch has cursed the land with one hundred years of winter. The Witch controls Narnia with the help of her evil army. The Witch lures Edmund with delicious Turkish Delight and the promise that he will have authority over his siblings if he delivers them to her castle. The Witch develops a blood lust for the Pevensie children and attempts to capture them throughout the film. The Witch is the mortal enemy of Aslan and engages his army in battle in the last parts of the film. English Language Arts 6th and 7th Grade Some of the ELA standards used in this movie guide are: Objective 3.02 Explore and analyze the problem-solution process

After they have concluded discussing their character, students will create a game they could play if they were in the same situation as the Pevensie siblings. This allows the students relate to the siblings by being in their shoes. Remind students that there were not computers or video games during WWII, so they need to use their imagination, with limited resources. They will create a rulebook, with the name of their game on the front, with a picture if they choose, and a list of five rules. They will share their game with the class, and demonstrate if they wish.

Tumnus: But, oh, you would have loved Narnia in spring! The Dryads and the Fauns would dance all night... but we never got tired. And oh, the music! Such music. Would you... like to hear some now?
lullabies? Lucy: (shakes her head): No, I'm afraid I'm not Tumnus: Good, because this probably won't sound anything like one. Have the students fold a piece of paper in half, and on one side label winter, and the other label Christmas. Have the students list, or draw if they wish, what comes to mind when they think of either winter or Christmas. Then they will compare and contrast the two different topics, as well as comparing their ideas to their classmates.

The evacuation of Britain's cities at the start of World War Two was the biggest and most concentrated mass movement of people in Britain's history. In the first four days of September 1939, nearly 3,000,000 people were transported from towns and cities in danger from enemy bombers to places of safety in the countryside. Most were schoolchildren, who had been labeled like pieces of luggage, separated from their parents and accompanied instead by a small army of guardians - 100,000 teachers. By any measure it was an astonishing event, a logistical nightmare of co-ordination and control beginning with the terse order to 'Evacuate forthwith,' issued at 11.07am on Thursday, 31 August 1939. Few realized that within a week, a quarter of the population of Britain would have a new address. Talking to evacuees now about the events of those days in 1939 recalls painful memories that have been deeply hidden for 60 years, exposing the trauma of separation and isolation and the tensions of fear and anger. Most were unaware of where they were going, what they would be doing and all were wholly ignorant of when they would be coming back. The fear of air attack from German bombers at the start of hostilities encouraged parents to send their children to safety. There were predictions of 4,000,000 civilian casualties in London alone, and, as early as 1922 - after the air threat from Zeppelins - Lord Balfour had spoken of 'unremitting bombardment of a kind that no other city has ever had to endure'. The Government had stockpiled coffins, erected masses of barrage balloons and planned, at least in outline, for the mass evacuation of British cities before 1939. But it is now revealed that these plans were hopelessly flawed. In the first place, the estimates of casualties were grossly over-exaggerated and the subsequent Government propaganda caused near panic rather than controlled movement. In addition, the man in charge of evacuation, Sir John Anderson, was a cold, inhuman character with little understanding of the emotional upheaval that might be created by evacuation.
