Crowdsourcing my lesson planning
Jun. 9th, 2020 05:53 pmWould anyone by an chance know any fun films, cartoons or short stories for kids that feature letterboxing (preferably set on Dartmoor itself)?
(I know there's a Famous Five episode in which letterboxing makes an appearance, but I suspect it's one of the German additions. (Fun fact: There are a lot of German stories about Enid Blyton's settings and characters that Enid Blyton did never in fact write. It's a huge franchise of, basically, licensed fanfiction.) If it only exists in German, it isn't of use (although German subtitles would be extremely helpful. I mean, these kids aren't native speakers of English). There's no letterboxing in the original Five Go To Mystery Moor, anyway.)
The topic of the current (and last) unit is Dartmoor, and I'd like to turn our last English lesson (which is also our very last lesson together in that constellation, because the classes will be rearranged next school year! Welp!) into a lil schoolyard letterboxing adventure, but in order for that to make sense, they first have to learn what letterboxing is! Preferably with minimal teacher involvement, because I have to check and return their loaned textbooks (all of them, not just English) during our penultimate English lesson...
