We shared this thought-provoking GoPro video in one of our Facebook posts. The video clip could be used to motivate students to write a:

  • recount in the first or third person
  • narrative - searching for a place to rest 
  • description of the polar bear swimming or the setting 
  • persuasive piece with an environmental focus.
