The extra effort you put into this will make a real difference in the outdoor experience of the Cub Scouts your participants serve. You can use this checklist to prepare a packet of local information and resources for Cub Scout leaders. It is organizedby training sections so that you can distribute the information sheet at the beginning of the training and refer to it during those parts of the training.

  • The Jungle Book
    The Jungle Book The Jungle Book The story A wolf family finds a young boy wandering in the jungle and adopts him, giving him the name Mowgli. He becomes part of the wolf pack, and Baloo, the old bear and Bagheera, the panther, teach him the Law of the Jungle. However, Shere Khan, the tiger, doesn’t like having a child who will become a man living in the jungle, and wants to kill him. One day Mowgli is taken prisoner by the monkeys who live in an abandoned city in the jungle. Baloo and Bagheera get help from Kaa, the python, and rescue him. As Mowgli gets older he is in great danger from Shere Khan. The one thing that all animals are afraid of is fire, so he goes to a nearby village and steals a pot with fire in it. He uses the fire to fight Shere Khan, but he knows that he will have to kill Shere Khan to be safe. As Mowgli gets older, the animals begin to realize that he can’t live with them in the jungle when he is a grown man. He returns to the village where he is adopted by a family. But Shere Khan finds him. This time Mowgli kills Shere Khan. But the villagers are now afraid of Mowgli, so they chase him away and he returns to live in the jungle. 1 Explorers 4: The Jungle Book Teacher’s Notes This page has been downloaded from www.macmillanenglish.com/younglearners © Macmillan Publishers Limited 2015 The Jungle Book Introducing the book The contents page The cover • Ask the children to turn to the contents page.

  • Jungle Safari Adventure Ideas Content
    Jungle Safari Adventure Ideas www.shac.org/jungle-theme In 1914, Scouting founder Robert Baden-Powell started a Scouting program based on Rudyard Kipling’s The Jungle Book stories and targeted at younger boys in Britain. In 1914, Scouting founder Robert Baden-Powell started a Scouting program based on Rudyard Kipling’s The Jungle Book stories. Take the Cub Scouts on a safari and help them discover fun and adventure in the wilds of Scouting. Learn why Africa is special to our founder Lord Baden-Powell. Find out how the Jungle Book story connects to Scouting. Use it and its characters to highlight den meeting games, crafts, and costumes for the pack meeting. Learn about the things you need if you are going on a safari and how would you survive. What do Scouts in Africa do? What are their uniforms like? Take a den trip to a local zoo, animal rescue facility, or wildlife refuge. Jungle/safari makes a great theme for pack meetings, banquets or day camp. • Pack Meetings: The pack meeting brings all the dens in the pack together for the purposes of recognizing the achievements of the Cub Scouts, communicating information about upcoming events, and providing a program that enriches the Cub Scouting experience. It helps the Cub Scouts realize their den is part of a larger organization. A good pack meeting should be well planned and well organized. Packs meet several times during the year – there is no required number. • Banquets: Most packs celebrate Scouting Anniversary Week in February with a birthday party called the blue and gold banquet; some packs do end of the year banquets.

  • 1 the Jungle Book Scene 1
    1 The Jungle Book Scene 1: Mowgli’s Found in the Jungle Basu: Many strange legends are told of these jungles of India. But none as strange as the story of a small boy named Mowgli. It all began when the silence of the jungle was broken by an unfamiliar sound. (O.S. Baby is crying) It was a sound like one never heard before in this part of the jungle. Bagheera: (enters on stage) It’s a man-cub! Basu: Had Bagheera known how deeply he would be involved with Mowgli, he might have obeyed his first impulse to walk away. But Bagheera knew this man-cub would need nourishment, and soon. It would take many days to travel to the nearest man-village, and without a mother's care, well, he would soon perish. Then it occurred to him. (Bagheera grabs the basket by his mouth and starts walking to the corner to the wolves’ family den. Bagheera places basket by cave and nudges basket, creating a cry from Mowgli. Bagheera hides on the side of the stage watching the interaction of Mother Raksha and 4 wolf cubs coming to see what the noise was) Basu: Bagheera knew a family of wolves that had been blessed with a litter of cubs, and he believed there'd be no problem with the mother, Raksha, accepting this man-cub into the family thanks to maternal instinct. But he wasn’t so sure about Rama, the father. [Rama comes from side stage, looks at the man-cub and smiling face of Raksha, looks at cute Mowgli again and smiles too.] Basu: Ten times the rains have come and gone.

  • Jungle Dances and Their Variations Jungle Dances
    Jungle Dances and their variations Jungle Dances Introduction This booklet has been compiled in response to a number of suggestions that the variations in the Jungle Dances should be collected together in a convenient form. With these are reprinted the Founder's own descriptions from The Wolf Cub's Handbook, and a few explanatory notes which may be found helpful. It should be remembered that there is no intention to limit the number of the Dances to those already published in the Handbook. In proof of this, the original four have been increased to five by the addition of the Dance of Shere Khan's Death, now one of the most popular of the series. Nor is it intended for the Pack, and are to be welcomed so long as the Dances are not thereby made unduly elaborate and difficult to follow. Grateful acknowledgement is made to those whose variations have been used in the following pages. Teaching the Dances It is not desired to lay down any hard-and-fast methods of teaching the Dances. That would be absurd, for each Akela must discover by experience the most successful method for his or her Pack. In the Jungle Dances, which are really plays of the Jungle, the Founder combined profit with pleasure. He has provided a means of expression for the boy's imaginative instinct and love of acting, and at the same time he has set forth certain very valuable lessons -- the moral lessons of the bullying Tiger and the sneaking Jackal, the disciplinary lessons of obedience (Kaa Dance) and Akela, bearing in mind all that can be learnt from these Jungle Dances, should give them thought and careful attention so that the Cubs will really enter into them.

  • Character Breakdown Mowgli Mowgli Is a Boy Who Gets Along with Everyone and Who Is Very Likable
    Character Breakdown Mowgli Mowgli is a boy who gets along with everyone and who is very likable. He has a joyful and curious nature, and a twinkle in his eye. The child you cast should have a spark that can captivate the audience and should be a bit feisty. Choose a boy with a natural talent for acting and singing. Gender: Male Bagheera The role of Bagheera, the panther, is not gender-specific. You might consider casting a female to play this role to help balance the male-to-female ratio of the leading characters. Consider casting a child who might easily portray the physical attributes of a feline. Your Bagheera should be physically agile and uninhibited with good command of his or her body. The actor should also possess a natural talent for acting, singing and leading a story. Bagheera should act like an older brother or sister to Mowgli. Gender: Both Baloo Baloo, the bear, should be cast by someone who is exuberant with a great natural talent for singing and acting. Baloo provides much of the comedic relief in the story, so the actor must possess a natural sense of comedy. Consider casting a child who might easily have the physical traits of a big bear and who is not afraid to be wild and crazy and physically uninhibited. The actor should not be self-conscious and should enjoy the spotlight. Baloo's part in "I Wan'na Be Like You" demands a singer with a strong sense of rhythm. Gender: Male Kaa Kaa, the snake, supplies threat and danger to Mowgli's journey out of the jungle.
