In Literacy we are using the short film ‘Baboon on the Moon’ as a stimulus for writing and speaking and listening.
Initially we listened to the film, making predictions from what we could hear then we discussed how the baboon feels living all alone on the moon.

Then we began to use thought bubbles to express his feelings at certain times of the film. We have all agreed that he is very lonely and sad. During the coming week we will be thinking of questions we could ask him and also hot seating children in role as the baboon.
