Letters of advice, short news-reports, writing in role, retellings, information poster Main Outcome: A 3 to 4 week unit using David Litchfield's beautiful picture book 'The Bear and the Piano'. We taught in Year 2 but I am sure it can be adapted for other year groups. It wouldn't let me upload any more files so just to say in the last week we then went on to write our own versions of the story, which the kids loved; we had a skateboarding bunny and a cello playing owl. It's possible to pursue one's artistic interests in ways that broaden your horizons while also maintaining a connection to and love for your original family and community; the two aren't mutually exclusive. Developing your talents leads to satisfaction and success. We can commemorate and support those we're proud of. Music makes us happy, and it's important to have it in our lives.

The bear pursues his musical and artistic interests and talent but also maintains a love for and connection to his home and original community. The bear community is proud of its talented member, even though they're sad he's had to leave them to nurture his talent.
