I love the short film 'Father and Daughter' - it's beautiful and touching without saying a word. And the latter is why it lends itself so well to creative writing - use the music to create brilliant writers. The worksheet attached takes you through step-by-step to make thoughtful responses to the music and the video. It starts by you blocking the images and getting pupils just to listen, then using this as the basis for a story. There's also a handy peer/self assessment grid to guide ideas a little more closely to create considerate writers. I hope you enjoy this as much as I do - it's genuinely one of my favourite activities I do with a group.
