A young boy Michael is taken by his family on a round-the-world sailing trip. But when a storm strikes, Michael and his dog Stella are swept overboard and washed up on a remote island. They struggle to survive, but one day Michael wakes to find fresh fish and coconut milk by his cave. He discovers his mysterious benefactor is Kensuke, a former Japanese soldier, creator of a treetop kingdom and protector of the orangutans. Slowly, communicating through drawings rather than words, Michael and Kensuke form a friendship. But something threatens to destroy the fragile world Kensuke has created.
Il y a de l'motion dans ce film qui fonctionne avec de belles musiques et ces motions vient surtout de la part de Kensuk qui est le personnage le plus attachant ici surtout d ce qu'il a vcu, j'ai bien aim aussi Stella mais un peu moins Michael qui, par moment, est insupportable mais surtout stupide mais en tout cas sa relation avec Kensuke est meilleur suivre que celle avec sa famille.
This resource from CIEC challenges children to purify rocksalt by making a solution, filtering and evaporating. Full of practical advice on how to run the session supported by notes for teachers on the science behind the practicals this is a really useful resource.
Beat the Flood is a problem solving scenario where students use their STEM skills to help them design and build a model of a flood- proof house. Activities to help them with their design include testing materials (for strength and absorbency) and investigations to find the strongest structures, this links very well to work on 3d shapes and nets.
Kensuke's kingdom is set on a deserted fictitious island. In this scenario the island is inhabited with people trying to cope with the devastating effects of flooding caused by climate change. Beat the Flood is perfect for STEM and science clubs, curriculum enrichment days, and providing a great context for science and Design and Technology lessons.
In Kitchen Concoctions the children learn to make their own bars of soap and recipes for the perfect bubble mixture. There are lots of mathematical possibilities within these pattern seeking investigations for looking at ratio and proportion. Plus considering how recipes are scaled up for manufacture.
In this series of films and resources, Professor Brian Cox works with children to investigate how can we clean our dirty water. By building simple filtration systems using basic resources sand and sieves, the children can create a filter to make the water clean. Afterwards their samples can be judged in terms of their cleanliness and transparency. Further videos show Brian Cox visiting a sewage treatment plant to see how sewage is cleaned by various processes so it can be returned to rivers
