I guess it depends on what you're working with currently. I had my 4th graders read a book, and then we watched a movie based on the book. During the movie they jotted down things they noticed that were different from the book, and then after the movie we shared ideas. We made Venn diagrams and then wrote a paper to explain the similarities and differences between the book and movie.

You could change this to fit other things, such as read two versions of the same story, or use it for something in social studies/history.
