Episode 1 Disney's The Crossover Series Text Companion Handout

By TooBookedUp

If your students loved reading Kwame Alexander's The Crossover, they need to see the new Disney+ series! As teachers, we want our students to be engaged, even when they are watching a film. With this resource, students will be challenged to think critically about the text and film in a variety of ways including comparing and contrasting, evaluating director decisions, and tracking character development across the series.

This resource includes:

  • A double-sided handout for episode 1
  • This handout contains:
  • One do now question, three discourse questions, compare and contrast section, and two rigorous writing tasks in DOK 3 or 4 and Bloom's Taxonomy Evaluate/Analyze categories.
  • This handout contains a teacher-facing answer key with answers students may write about.
