Brief “lesson launcher type” activity or a series of inquiry questions with a bit of context:

An animated film from a dog’s perspective, illustrating the plethora of dangers and accidents that could happen at home with small children. As you watch, keep track of all the different accidents that Wally the dog prevents. How does the family underestimate him on a daily basis? Near the end, Wally experiences a series of accidents at the playground. How many of these accidents have happened to you or someone you know? What could you do to prevent these types of accidents? Why do you think the family dog was chosen as the voice of reason in this family? Is he a trustworthy narrator?
