Speaking Activity

This activity has been designed to create a class debate/ discussion about behaviour. We sometimes find that as teachers, we worry a lot about the content, but since we are working with kids, many things are going on in the classroom and sometimes you have to spend more time talking about other issues rather than teaching. So this activity deals with ways of reacting to certain attitudes and how to solve problems.

Watch "Partly Cloudy" by Pixar and answer the following questions:

General questions:

• What do the clouds give to the storks?

• Name some of the animals that you could see?

• What feelings can you see in the video?

Questions about behaviour:

• Are all the storks happy? Why? Why not?

• Are all the clouds happy? Why? Why not?

• Is the helmet helpful?

• How does the cloud react to the stork leaving?

• Do you think this is a good solution? Why? Why not? 

• When you don't agree with a classmate, what do you do? How do you feel?
