A website is offering videos and resources to use the Star Wars films as a tool to teach classroom lessons.
StarWarsInTheClassroom.com is a website and YouTube channel that seems geared towards older students, as it explores themes in the films and their relation to themes in literature. However, there are lessons suitable for some upper elementary classes, including creative writing prompts and social studies lessons.
The site includes both original content and links to other resources, including Star Wars-themed educational projects like “Star Wars: Science, Myth, and Imagination” and “Star Wars Reads Day.”
