- Discussion notes - This story provides opportunities to explore feelings and emotions. Children can be encouraged to talk about how Bert and Betsie may be feeling at different points in the story and how these feelings can change as they begin to understand each other and build a friendship.
- Extended discussions: Feelings and emotions. Children can be encouraged to think about how feelings are shown in different ways, such as facial expressions, body language, sounds, and what characters might say. This can help support understanding of how emotions can be recognised and communicated.
