Book Reading and Drama
The children watch documantaries and see photos of lungs. They discuss the effect of bad habits like smoking and they read a children's book about addictions. The book bears the title "A young frog in the swamp" and is the story of a young frog who is full of energy and loves taking risks. However, his visiting the swamp and meeting the infamous lizard cause him a lot of trouble as well as serious health problems. After reading the tale, the children watched the performance and they were excited by the puppets, the music, the sounds of the swamp and the Black Light Theater technique used by the artists.
