The worksheets

Most worksheets can be completed after watching the trailer (or reading the short synopsis called La Casita). The reading "Bruno" contains spoilers and can only be completed after watching the movie.

Worksheets about the movie:

• Family tree : Students read a short text and fill in the family tree.
• La casita (presente/fácil) : students watch the trailer and read a short text about La casita, the house of the Madrigal Family. The text is in present tense and is perfect for novice Spanish students. It comes with a comprehension questions (multiple choice). This reading is appropriate for Spanish 1 and Spanish 2.
• La casita (pasado/difícil): Same text but it is in the past tense. It also contains more difficult language. Perfect to challenge Spanish 1/2 students or to practice the past tense. It comes with a multiple choice exercise. This reading is appropriate for Spanish 2 and 3.
• La familia: descripciones (complete only after reading "La casita" or after watching the movie): this activity asks students to write a short text about different members of the family. Students write name, superpower and physical description. After the movie comes out you could also ask the students to include personality traits. Students may need a picture of the family tree in color to better describe physical appearance.
• Superpoderes (complete only after reading "La casita" or after watching the movie): short activity on the vocabulary of the family superpowers. It also includes a little writing assignment: ¿What would your superpower be and why?
• Bruno (lectura): reading about Bruno written from a 1st person perspective. This text contains spoilers so don't assign it until your students watch the movie! It comes with open ended questions and short writing activity. This reading is a bit more challenging than the first two. Scaffolding for lower levels like Spanish 1 (and even 2) is advised.
