Here is a link to a great short animated film narrated by Carl Sagan that shows us just how precious, fragile and unique we are on our 'pale blue dot'. Great for stimulating deep thinking, discussions and, of course, poetry.
Here is a great link to a post from NPR. There is a brilliant short animation film that challenges the audience to look at their place in the cosmos - how unique life is on Earth but also how delicate it is as well. We have used this video in staff PD and also as the start of a Poetry Workshop in Grade 5 to link with their Sharing the Planet Unit.
