⭐⭐⭐ ⭐ A Plastic Ocean is an engaging, effective, and informative documentary about the causes, effects, and human impacts of plastics in our oceans. This download includes an editable video handout, PDF, and digital Google Slides version of the handout, and an answer key. You can find the full documentary on streaming sites or on DVD.
The handout includes 34 short answer questions that are timed in sequence to the video, and 6 summarizing and analysis questions. The first 34 questions are formatted short-answer style, however no answer is much longer than 1-3 words. The questions are spaced out so that they do not go too fast or too slow and encompass the entire film from start to finish. The digital Google Slides version has pre-formatted text boxes and appropriate spacing for digital use.
This assignment is perfect for an introduction or enrichment to human impact, the environment, and ocean ecosystems, and a great sub-plan for Biology, Ecology, and Environmental Science classes.

Description from IMDb -
“A PLASTIC OCEAN begins when journalist Craig Leeson, searching for the elusive blue whale, discovers plastic waste in what should be pristine ocean. In this adventure documentary, Craig teams up with free diver Tanya Streeter and an international team of scientists and researchers, and they travel to twenty locations around the world over the next four years to explore the fragile state of our oceans, uncover alarming truths about plastic pollution, and reveal working solutions that can be put into immediate effect.”
