Reflection
Watching this introduction to the game what descriptive language comes to mind?
Can we use similes, metaphors and figurative language to describe the hero’s journey and mission?
What effect will using an introduction like this have on the children, as compared with using still images?
How would the children benefit in their writing by using this game to control the characters’ movements?
