| How We Determine Our Grades | |
After watching a movie with your children or students, we encourage parents and teachers to look for education opportunities to teach with movies. Here are a few discussion topics that can help with lesson plans or teaching in the home.
Piglet’s friends use his scrapbook to act as a map of memories. You may want to use this movie in your family as a way to encourage children to begin building their own books of memories through drawings, writings, and photographs.
One segment in this movie has the friends concerned about how Kanga treats her baby Roo because they don’t understand what Kanga’s pouch is used for. Do you ever misunderstand other people’s customs or “way of doing things?” Does your opinion sometimes change after you get to know them?
The friends learn how valuable their relationship with Piglet is after they think he is lost. Can you think of anyone you take for granted? How would you feel if they were suddenly gone?
