This week we have been listening to the soundtrack to the film “The Snowman.”  We began by discussing how the music made us feel, and why we thought this.  We were then given a range of writing media to create a mood picture whilst listening to the music.  Each child was encouraged to explain how the music made them feel and how this related to their picture.  Take some time to listen to this piece of music with your child.  Talk to them about the emotions it evokes and encourage your child to use a range of vocabulary to explain how they feel (lonely, excited, frustrated, anxious, relaxed, calm etc).
