This creative adventure takes place during a fun day out.
When some children investigate a crying sound behind a bush they discover a very sad baby dragon. They help their new little friend to solve his problems.
The lesson skills are improvisation, mime and movement, role-play. Children will learn to empathise and offer help.
They will also be faced with the challenge of keeping secrets and consider when it is okay that mum does not learn the absolute truth! Very interesting for teachers to see the reactions of students to this predicament.
