Set in a fantasy world very much like Adrift. A man is sailing in his boat, through the air! He hears a noise and suddenly gliding into view are some giant, flying turtles.
Teaching Ideas
A very short animation that can be used to extract some amazing descriptions from the children.
- Collect verbs and adverbs to do with floating and sailing gracefully.
- The children could write an ending to the story, where do these turtles take him?
-Choose a different animal to come floating by, use show not tell to describe the animal rather than just saying what it is.
