3 Our downloadable resources are designed to be used in conjunction with selected film titles, which are available free for clubs at Activity pack Building the mood The film opens with a broad cross-section of Muppet life in Victorian England, but what kind of Victorian England is this? Watch the clip Opening setting {time code 00:02:26-00:03:40} Ask students to think, pair and share five adjectives they would use to describe the setting. Ask the group to give an example of something that they saw or heard in the clip to justify their choice of adjective. The Three Ghosts One of the most well known elements of the Dickens story is the appearance of the three ghosts. In The Muppet Christmas Carol they are all introduced in very different ways to build different moods: Watch the following The Ghost of Christmas Past {00:29:50-00:31:20} The Ghost of Christmas Present {00:44:03-00:45:56} The Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come {00:59:45-01:01:24} Divide the class into three groups assigning each one the ghost of Christmas Past, Present, or Yet to Come. Ask each group to draw an outline of their ghost and divide the drawing into three sections: Ask each group to feedback and discuss how the use of colour, camera, setting and sound affects the way that a viewer sees each character. Empathy with Ebenezer Throughout the story, Ebenezer Scrooge is presented as the archetypal grumpy old man and we see Scrooge as a child at school to understand where his negative feelings and bitterness came from. Watch the clip Ebenezer sees himself at school {00:33:00-00:36:02} Ask the group to work in pairs or threes to prepare a 60 second persuasive speech starting with the sentence Ebenezer Scrooge was an unhappy old man because of his childhood experiences... Groups can choose to persuade the audience that Scrooge s behavior in later life is right or wrong. intofilm.org 3
4 Our downloadable resources are designed to be used in conjunction with selected film titles, which are available free for clubs at Activity pack Listen to the groups speeches and discuss whether the group has sympathy for Scrooge, and whether his experiences as a child justify his actions and attitude in later life. Empathy with Ebenezer as an old man Watch the clip You there, boy! {01:09:55-01:12:15} Ebenezer receives his first ever Christmas present at the end of this scene. You could include this in the above activity and ask the group to think, pair and share why they think Ebenezer is so grateful to receive the gift. How might this influence the rest of his life? The Yes and No game This game has many names, and everyone loves it. Watch the clip the yes and no game {00:48:49-00:50:31} Ask each member of the group to think of something connected to Christmas and write it down on a slip of paper to see if the rest of the class can guess what it is by asking one question at a time. Remember, you can only answer with yes or no. Each person in the group is allowed to ask one question, and they have to try to guess the answer in 20 questions or less. Narration game! features two narrators. Ask the group to think, pair and share why films have a narrator, and why this film has two narrators. Ask members of the group to play the roles of Gonzo as Charles Dickens and Rizzo the rat. Give the volunteers a hat or prop to indicate who is in which role and speaking. For each clip a new pair can take on the roles. Play each of the following clips with the sound turned off, and ask the people in the roles to narrate the scene. If you have not watched the whole film recently, you may like to start by playing the film with sound and then carry out the narration task, to see what people have remembered. Give each pair about 30 seconds, from these suggested starting places for each pair: Scrooge arrives at work 00:08:21 Bob Cratchit has questions for Ebenezer 00:09:42 Scrooge is asked to donate to charity 00:11:45 Bob Cratchit has more questions for Ebenezer 00:14:46 Scrooge receives a visit from Jacob and Robert Marley 00:23:27 Christmas at the Cratchit home 00:51:59 intofilm.org 4
5 Our downloadable resources are designed to be used in conjunction with selected film titles, which are available free for clubs at Activity pack Subtitle singalong! Nothing is as festive as a singalong, and this is one of the most heart-warming songs in the film. Play the clip Thankful Heart {01:12:13 01:15:03} with the DVD subtitles, or print out the lyrics on page 6. Act the grump! Watch the clip Merry Christmas {01:15:06 01:16:13} Ask for 3 volunteers to re-enact the scene. Divide your group into groups of 3. Ask each group to write three acting notes for each volunteer. These should be three points that the actor has in mind when they are re-enacting the scene, for example Scrooge never smiles, Bob Cratchit is always slouching, etc. Ask the volunteers to re-enact the scene by using the script, and demonstrating their understanding of the characters and the story. intofilm.org 5
6 SUBTITLE SINGALONG! Thankful Heart: Music and lyrics by Paul Williams With a thankful heart, with an endless joy, With a growing family, every girl and boy, Will be nephew and niece to me. (Nephew and niece to me) Will bring love, hope and peace to me. (Love, hope and peace to me) Yes, and every night will end, And every day will start, With a grateful prayer, and a thankful heart. With an open smile, and with open doors, I will bid you welcome, what is mine is yours. With a glass raised to toast your health. (With a glass raised to toast your health) And a promise to share the wealth. (A promise to share the wealth) I will sail a friendly course, File a friendly chart, On a sea of love and a thankful heart. Life is like a journey, Who knows when it ends? Yes, and if you need to know The measure of a man You simply count his friends. Stop and look around you. The glory that you see Is born again each day, Don t let it slip away How precious life can be. With a thankful heart that is wide awake, I do make this promise every breath I take, Will be used now to sing your praise. (Used now to sing your praise) And to beg you to share my days. (Beg you to share my days) With a loving guarantee, That even if we part, I will hold you close in a thankful heart. 6

9 Our downloadable resources are designed to be used in conjunction with selected film titles, which are available free for clubs at Activity pack Warm-up Games Snowball fight (Suitable for 7+) This is a quick and fun game to play with your group. Ask your students to write the title of their favourite Christmas film and a movie that they wish they had starred in (explaining their reasons why) on a piece of paper. Students then have 5 seconds to throw their snowballs (not at each other!). Ask students to stop and pick up a random snowball, unravel it, read it aloud, and try to guess who it belongs to. Equipment: Pens, scrap paper Miming (Suitable for 9+) Write as many film titles as students in the group onto sticky notes or stickers. Stick a film title from our Comedy Christmas topic to each student s back. They must walk around the room and show their title to other students, who will mime their film title back to them. If a student guesses their title correctly they must sit down. This can also work with characters for a more simple guessing game. Suggested film titles: (1992, U), The Snowman (1986, U), Home Alone (1990, PG), Miracle on 34th Street (1947, U) Suggested film characters: Father Christmas, Ebenezer Scrooge, Kevin (Home Alone), Doris Walker Equipment: Stickers or sticky notes Christmas Primary favourites: Christmas Articulate This (Suitable for 7+) Split the group into two teams; one person from the first team will come to the front whilst a slide with a Christmas themed word is shown behind them. They can t see the slide. Their team needs to shout out clues (without saying any of the words on the slide) in order for the person at the front to guess what s on the screen. Give each team a minute and count the points scored before swapping to the next team. This game can be a nice vocabulary exercise and a fun way to link to the day s theme. Downloads: Search Christmas Activity Days on the website to find the download link to the Christmas Articulate slides. Christmas Board Race (Suitable for 7+) Ask the students to get into teams and give them two minutes to write as many words or phrases on the board/flipchart paper on a given topic, e.g. Christmas films, best ever presents, etc. They must write up their words relay-style and the team with the most words on the board at the end of the time wins. Different themes can form different rounds for a longer game. Equipment: Whiteboard pens, white board / flip chart intofilm.org 9
