- In a class discussion ask the children to compare the adventure game with real life through a series of questions, eg Do the characters in the adventure game ever get tired? Do the children get tired when they go out for a long walk or on a long journey? Do the characters ever need to stop and eat or go to the toilet? Does the adventure game show us what season it is? Does this matter? If it was a different season, would this affect the way the characters were dressed? When we see representations on the television how realistic are they? Are cartoons as realistic as representations using real people in real places? Are these sorts of programmes exactly like real life? Do they think that actors would really get hurt?

- know that representations of real or fantasy situations can be made in many different ways and although some, like television programmes and films, are very complex, they do not replicate real life exactly
