Soaring in the sky...


Read the following description and visualize it:
“Mara is standing in a large green field. She winds the propeller on a red and white model plane she is holding. She throws the plane into the air. At first the plane soars high, but suddenly it dips and crashes to the ground. Mara looks very disappointed. She walks to a table in the field which is covered with the blueprints for her model planes. She sits down and studies one of the blueprints, and the wind almost blows the blueprint away. Mara sighs and rests her head on a hand, and is very unhappy. All of a sudden, something from the sky hits Mara on the head and lands on the table – it is a very small blue case.”
Now watch until 0.55. Was it the same as you expected?

Now, in pairs, try to guess what is in the blue case.
What do you think is going to happen next?
Now watch until 1.58
So, were you right?
What does the mini-pilot want to do? Tell your story to your partner.
Now, watch the rest of the film and compare with your story.
What is in the blue case?
Did you enjoy the film?
How did it make you feel?
Does it have a messaqe?
Now watch the film again and write the story.
Look at this sentence. When does it talk about? Why? Other present tense for the future?
