What type of things happen once in a lifetime?

Show the opening scene. Image of the airship in the sky. What colour is the sky? What mood or feeling does this

give us? Can we describe the clouds? What is strange about this ship?

Pause the film after 12 seconds when the man has his hand on his face. What happened? What do we call the

object that fell off his boat? How is the man feeling? Can we describe someone who is sad, only describing their

actions?

Pause the film as the man looks through his telescope. What do you think was making that noise? What is he

looking through? How do we spell telescope?

Pause as the turtle flies over his head How is the man feeling? What words can we think of to describe the

turtle?

Pause at 58 seconds as the man lassoes the turtle. Ask the children to think about parts of a turtle. Which

parts of a turtle can we name? Discuss that these are nouns. Think of two adjectives for each of these nouns.

E.g. huge, round eye

Pause the film at 1min 8 secs –when the turtle is towing the ship. How do you think the man is feeling now?

Where do you think the turtle is taking the man?

Pause the film just after the rope snaps. How is the man feeling now? . What will happen next? Watch the film

until the end

Where do you think the turtle will take him? What type of story do you think this is? If you were telling the

story which creature might you choose instead of a turtle? Why?

Maths

12-hour and 24-hour clocks

Time is measured using either the 12-hour clock or the 24-hour clock.

12-hour clock

The 12 hour clock notation uses am and pm to indicate morning and afternoon.

am is the time from 12 midnight and before 12 noon ( 12:00pm is midday)

pm is the time from 12 midday and before 12 midnight ( 12.00am is midnight)

When we want to convert a 12 hour clock into a 24 hour clock, we add 12 e.g. 3pm in 24 hour-clock is 15:00

For example

6.23pm becomes (6:23 + 12 = 18:23)

7:45pm becomes (7:45 + 12 = 19:45)

24-hour clock

The 24-hour clock does not require the use of am or pm. Afternoon is indicated by a number bigger than 12.
