Here is a link to the “House Hippo” clip we watched last week.  We discussed why it is important to think about what we read, hear or see on TV or the Internet.  We also listened to the story “Bedtime is Canceled” and saw what crazy things can happen when people believe something that is not true.  When reading, viewing or listening to various media texts, we should consider the following things.  What is the message?  Do we believe it?  Do we agree with it?  How does the media text make us feel?  Is it too scary or violent for us?  Is it kind and inspiring?
