4 PAPER PLANES Robert Connolly, 96 min, Australia, 2014 It is something that everybody identifies with because everybody has made a paper plane. Paper Planes tells the story of 12-year-old Dylan, a country boy with lots of energy and a passion for making and flying paper planes. After proving his paper-plane-flying prowess in the national competition in Sydney, he travels to Japan to compete in the world championship. For Dylan, winning is less important than being able to share his adventure with his father. Before Visiting ACMI What kind of film is Paper Planes? Show students a range of Paper Planes film posters and advertisements. (There are some great ones online.) - What information does each provide about: - Story - Character - Themes? - If students in the class have seen the film, they can evaluate how successfully each of the posters represents the film but make sure they don t spoil the story for others. Learning how to communicate your response to a film, book or play without retelling the story or delivering spoilers is an important skill to develop. Show the trailer. - What age group/audience do students think the film is targeting? - What are some of the techniques used in the trailer to sell the film? The story behind the movie Watch the opening of the Australian Story episode Fly with Me (31 August 2009), about Dylan Parker, an Australian paper plane-throwing champion. Due to challenging themes (brain tumour diagnosis), we recommend you only screen the opening section finishing with: And yeah it really did take over my life, and I didn t care 'cause it was so much fun. Students can also watch the Behind the News report on Parker and his friend James Norton s program for schools: 23 June 2009, ep.17, 2
5 Questions and Activities - Who has ever made a paper plane? - Did it fly? - Did anyone teach them how to make a paper plane? - If so, who? - If not, how did they come up with the idea for their design? - At home, try out some of your own paper plane design ideas. - Ask for more ideas from family and friends, or do some research online. - Back at school, give each student a single piece of paper and challenge them to make a championship paper plane in 3 minutes. - Find a space to race them. - Make a record of the most successful designs. (You can then compare your class s experience with the designs that are most successful in the film.) *These activities can also be used effectively after the film screening. Prepare for Your Visit Paper Planes is a feature film and has been made to be screened in a cinema to an audience. Give your students a chance to get excited before the event. - Tell them about the Australian Centre for the Moving Image (ACMI) - Has anyone visited ACMI before? If so, what did they do when they visited? - Who knows where it is located? (Federation Square) - Who enjoys going to the movies? - What kind of behaviour is required at the cinema? 3
6 After Visiting ACMI Reflect on your visit to ACMI - What was the most special thing about going to the Australian Centre for the Moving Image? - What new things did you see/learn/experience? - What did you already know about or had done before? - What did you see/learn/experience that surprised you? Initial response to the film - Which aspects of the film stand out? Which scene was the most memorable? - How did the story make you feel? Did it make you happy, laugh, angry, upset or sad? Why? - In groups think about the message of the film. Join together as a class and share your thoughts. - Encourage a range of answers. - Ask students to support their answers with examples from the film. Narrative/story Narrative structure Film narratives are usually organised into three sections, beginning, middle and end. Beginning The main character or characters are introduced at the beginning of the story. In Paper Planes the main character is Dylan. - How is he introduced? - What other important characters are we introduced to in the beginning? Middle A complication or problem arises that must be resolved/worked out. - What are some of the problems that Dylan faces? End - The story concludes as the problem is solved. - How does Paper Planes end? - Were the students surprised by this ending? 4
7 - How else might the film have ended? There are 2 main stories in Paper Planes Dylan s attempts to win the paper plane championship and his relationship with his father. - How does the ending bring these two stories together? Plot Plot describes the events that keep the story (narrative) moving. - What are the main events (plot points) in Paper Planes? - Divide students into groups and ask them to identify these key events. - Compare each group s findings and then try to come up with a whole class description of the plot. (Summarising/précising is a great skill to develop.) Kids as heroes Robert Connolly made this film because he wanted to tell a story where the kids were at the centre of the action. He wanted it to be a film for kids about kids. - In what other films are the kids the heroes? - Make a list as a class. - What similarities does Paper Planes share with these films? - How is it different? Characterisation Dylan the protagonist/main character - What is Dylan like? (Brainstorm with single words to get the discussion underway.) - Is he a successful main character? - Do you care what happens to him? Explain and give examples. - What do we learn about Dylan as the story unfolds? What does he learn about himself? What does he learn about others? How has his life changed by the end of the story? - In groups, use the prompts provided on the sheet on the next page to focus on Dylan. 5
8 Other characters - As a class, make a list of other significant characters in the film. - Allocate a different character to each group and ask students to focus on the key features of this character and his/her role in the story. - Use the Character Development sheet to organise the response. - Join together as a class to discuss and extend your ideas. Character Development Dylan BEGINNING What do you know about Dylan at the beginning of the film? END What more do you know about him at the end of the film? 6
9 Provide an example that explains what he is like in the beginning. Has Dylan changed by the end of the film? Explain your answer. Character Development Name of Character: BEGINNING What do you know about this character at the beginning of the film? END What more do you know about the character at the end of the film? 7
10 Provide an example that explains what the character is like in the beginning. Has this character changed by the end of the film? Explain your answer. Themes Creativity and imagination Kimi tells Dylan that winning is not important but rather It s about making something beautiful and surprising. - Discuss this idea. - Do students agree? - What have they made, done or experienced that was beautiful and surprising? (Kids might remember a fantastic piece of play in a sporting game, a special artwork, a brilliant song, a waterfall or a rare bird or animal.) Meeting life s challenges - What challenges does Dylan face? - Considering these challenges, why does the paper plane competition become so important to him? - Dylan s story has a happy ending. 8
11 - Would it still have been a happy ending if Dylan s plane had not flown the furthest? Explain. Community Dylan has an enormous amount of determination but he needs help to follow his dream. - What are some of the ways that Dylan finds help and support? The international competition is more about bringing people together than it is about winning and losing. - What does Dylan learn from his time in Japan? Jason has no sense of community. - How do we know this? How does this affect him and his life? Bullying Dylan is bullied by two different boys during the story. This is a serious issue and its treatment in Paper Planes offers an opportunity for class discussion. - How does Dylan deal with each of these situations? - What happens? - Why does Kevin accept Dylan s offer of friendship but not Jason? - What does this tell us about Kevin? - What does it tell us about Jason? - Why doesn t Dylan report Jason for his violent behaviour? - Why is staying silent the wrong thing to do? - Imagine you are Dylan s friend and want to help him out. Visit the Bully Stoppers website where you will find information to help when you or someone you know is being bullied: - In groups, consider the best way for Dylan to respond to Jason s bullying. 9
12 Further Activities Championships Now that you have seen the film, spread the word about how much fun it is to fly paper planes. - Hold a whole school paper plane competition - best flyer longest distance - best flyer longest time in the air (aloft) - most unusual design - most beautiful paper plane design - Before: Ask students to predict which plane will fly the furthest and which will stay in the air the longest. What leads them to that conclusion? - After: What factors contributed to the success of the winner? Celebrating Surprising Skills and Talents - What unexpected (or silly) skill or talent do you have or wish you had? - What kind of competition could you create around this skill or talent? - longest daisy chain, best or scariest mask, craziest costume, biggest bubble Dylan s mother taught him to make paper planes. - What skill or talent has a friend or family member shared with you? Maybe you could pass it on by shaing it with someone in your class. 10
