Movie Worksheet: Desperate Housewives, Season1, Episode1 (Personality and Characters Idioms)
Pre-teach the idioms using the video “Learn English - English Idioms for Personality & Character”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vdSBqoteJpI. Desperate housewives season 1 episode 1 (up to 8:05). Make a stop at the moment when Susan is sitting at the table watching the neighbor pouring coffee for her. Then continue watching starting from 09:40 up to 13:50. For the pre-int. students you will need to preteach some words from the video as well (like retrieve, errand, grief-stricken etc.).
I use VLC player to show the video with subtitles. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=98SuAiRdiqc. In addition you can use Wordle with the idioms. You find the one here "Wordle Idioms for Personality and Characters"!
