TEACHING RESOURCES

Catch a Lot

This short film tells of two whalers. A father and son team who have differing opinions about their jobs.  

The film has no dialogue and uses body language to show feelings. 

Teaching Ideas

  • Write a dialogue between the two characters.
  • Use show, not tell to show the characters' feelings using the film as a model.
  • Write a resignation letter from the young character.
  • Persuade the pair that whaling is not ethical.
