Education

Ages 8 to 11

Notes

As a preparatory activity, spark a discussion with the following questions: why do we occasionally feel bored and weary? Why do we sometimes feel alone, even when someone else is there? Are there ways of passing the time without entertainment technologies? Then, ask the students to share their impressions of the film: what is part of the boy’s “reality,” and what is part of his imagination? What does he do to stave off boredom? What roles are played by adults and animals?
