Parenthesis: red flying fox

Writing Ideas

• In the main clip, the mother bat is desperately trying to clean her squirming youngster. What do you think they are saying to each other? Write the conversation.
• Use the Animals Town website to find more facts on the flying fox and write a mini information text or fact file. Try to include parenthesis in your writing.
• Imagine being nocturnal! Imagine being able to fly! Write a short story about a character who has these powers. What mischief do they get up to? What problem might they encounter? How will they solve it?
