Ballet lesson

In class I showed a basic introduction to ballet.
The video taught about the 10 basic movements
of ballet. It looked very difficult!

Here are some sample questions that are
similar to the ones on the test Monday.



1. Describe the role that the 1984-85 miners strike
played in the film.




2. What are the similarities between dancers and
athletes who play football, baseball, basketball or
tennis? What are the differences?




3.Why was Miss Wilkinson especially interested in
teaching ballet to Billy?




4.Evaluate Billy's father as a parent. What did he do
well and what did he do poorly?




5.There were times when Billy didn't obey his father,
especially about taking dance lessons. What do you
think of this behavior?
