What lives in the ocean? - End of Lesson Quiz

﻿Hi everyone, I'm Ms. Harris and welcome to today's geography lesson. We are going to be learning all about how the ocean is different at the North Pole compared to the equator, which is the imaginary line that goes around the centre of our earth. So let's get started. We are going to be recapping the location of the five oceans, we are going to be looking at what the equator is, 'cause you might not know. We are going to look at which oceans are near the North Pole, which oceans are near the equator. And then lastly, we're going to be looking at animals in the oceans that we can find in the North Pole and near or on the equator. So today you will need your exercise book or a piece of paper. You would need a pencil, a coloured pencil so that you can mark your work, and most importantly, you're going to need something called your brain. Have you got your brain? Are you sure? If you haven't got any of these things that you can see here, now is your chance to pause the video and go and get them. So if you need to get them, pause the video and go now. So hopefully you've got all of the things you need now, and you're sitting comfortably and ready for today's lesson. Great! So we are geographers in this unit of work. Geographers are types of scientists who study the earth, the land, and the people. Can you remember those actions? The earth, the land, and the people. Great job. Every lesson we are going to be doing, our star words. These are the important words that we're going to be saying a lot this lesson is important. We practise saying them. So you're going to be speaking out loud to your screen or to someone that's sitting next to you. So let's practise. We're going to do something called My Turn, Your Turn. I'm going to say it, then you're going to say it. Ready? Ice. Equator. Temperature. Arctic Ocean. North Pole. Hemisphere. Let's say that one again. Hemisphere. Good. Well done. So here is a map of our earth. Remember that's a map that shows our earth flat when our earth is actually sphere shape. So our earth is like this, an apple that I've got here. It's sphere shape. That's the shape of our earth too. Sorry, you might be able to hear that helicopter that's going over where I live at the moment. Now I'm going to stay an ocean and I would like you to point to where it is on a map. Stay your finger ready. Okay, made it nice and big. Can you find the Pacific Ocean? Can you point to it? Good. So it comes up twice on our map because remember our earth is flat. Oh, sorry, our map is flat, but our earth is a sphere shape. So when we look into it on a map, it comes up twice. Can you find the Atlantic Ocean now? I'm going to give you five seconds to find it. Here it is. Did you find it? Great job. Now, can you find the Indian ocean? And here it is. Great job. Can you now find the Arctic Ocean? There it is at the top. Well done. And lastly, can you find this Southern Ocean? So this ocean surrounds our coldest continent. It's here at the bottom. Well done. Great job. Now let's go back to our map and let's go that way so you can see me. Now, the equator is an imaginary line that goes around the centre of our earth. So I've got my globe here. Let me just grab it then you can see. So the equator goes around this centre so around this part here. Around the middle, the centre of our earth. It looks like this on a map. It's a straight line when we've got on that. And the equator is very important because it's the place that receives the most amount of sunlight from the sun and the equator, remember that goes around the centre of our earth. It's an imaginary line. You can't see it, but it's there. It's the centre. It splits our earth into two parts, into the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere. So on our earth at the top, we've got the Northern Hemisphere and then we've got the Southern Hemisphere at the bottom. How many parts does our earth have? Two parts. Good. And what is the name of the imaginary line that goes around the centre of the earth? It's called the equator. Well done. It's called the equator. Can you say that? Equator. Can you whisper it? Equator. Can you shout? Equator! Good job. Now we're going to do some writing, so pick up your pencil. Have you got it? Now you are going to copy this sentence down and fill in the gaps. I would like you to tell me what the equator is. So let's read it and I'm going to fill in the gaps by saying, "Hmm" because I'm not going to tell you the answer yet. The hmm is an imaginary hmm that goes around the hmm of earth. I would like you to pause the video and write down that sentence, filling in the gaps. Ready? Pause the video now. Okay, now pick up your coloured pencil or pen because we are going to tick or fix. That means that we are going to tick if we've got the right answer or fix it if we've got the wrong answer. And if we've got the wrong answer, that's okay because Ms. Harris makes mistakes all the time. So here are our answers. The equator is an imaginary line that goes around the centre of earth. Give yourself a tick if you wrote equator. Give yourself a tick if you wrote line. Give yourself a tick if you wrote centre. Okay? Great job. If you didn't get that right, don't worry. That's okay. You can pause the video and correct your answer. Fix it. Well done. Now, we are going to be comparing the oceans underneath and surrounding the North Pole, which is up here at the top. It's the most Northern part of our earth. Now we're going to compare it to what the oceans are like on and around the equator. So began to compare the ocean in the North Pole where the pink arrow is pointing to compared to where the green arrows are pointed to. So the oceans around the equator or on the equator. Okay? So we're comparing the North Pole oceans, good, and the oceans around the e... Equator, great job. On and near the equator. Now put your finger on the point on my map where the North Pole is. So do you remember where my pink arrow was pointing to? Can you put your finger there? So what is the name of the ocean under and surrounding the North Pole? Can you remember what the name is? So keep your finger there let's find out what the name is, keep your finger there, of that ocean. So we've got the Pacific Ocean. Is that at the top? No. We've got that Atlantic Ocean. Is that at the top? No. Indian ocean, is that near the top? No. The Arctic Ocean. Is that near your finger? You're right. The Arctic Ocean is the ocean which is under and surrounding the North Pole. And then at the bottom, we've got the Southern Ocean. So at the top we have got the Arctic Ocean. What's the ocean called? The... Good. The Arctic Ocean. Now we've got all the other oceans that are near the equator. Which ones do you think are near the equator? Good. Keep that in your head. Okay. Now what is the name of the ocean in the North Pole? So again, I'd like you to copy the sentence by picking up your pencil. Copy this sentence and write the name of the ocean which is on and surrounding the North Pole. The ocean in the North Pole is called the hmm. Pause the video, have a go at that now. Great job. Now pick up your coloured pencil or pen. So the correct answer is the Arctic Ocean. Is that what you wrote down? Great job. Give yourself a tick. So the ocean in the North Pole is called the Arctic Ocean. Now, when we look at the oceans around the equator I put some squares here of where the label usually goes on our map. Can you tell me one ocean which is near the equator that might be in one of these boxes. So we've got the Pacific Oceans near the equator. The Atlantic Ocean is on or near the equator and the Indian ocean is also on or near the equator. The Arctic Ocean is not, and the Southern ocean is not, is not close to the equator. In your books, I would like you to write down two oceans near or on the equator. So pick up your pencil. I'd like you to pause the video and write down two names of an ocean on or near the equator. Pause the video, have a go at that now. Great job. So remember, you could have said Pacific, the Atlantic, the Indian Ocean. The three oceans which are on or near the equator. Great! So how can we describe the Arctic ocean? Take a look at this picture. Does it look like a warm place? No, it's a really cold place actually. We already know that the Arctic Ocean surrounds or is underneath the North Pole. We can see it here on our picture of our globe that the North Pole is at the top and the Arctic ocean surrounds the North Pole or is underneath. You'll be thinking, "Ms. Harris, how could be the ocean be underneath the North Pole?" That's because the North Pole is a huge, the Arctic is a huge sheet of ice which is thick on top of the water, compared to Antarctica which it has land underneath the ice. So they've got ice and snow and then underneath is land. Whereas in the Arctic, on top of the water is a huge sheet of ice. There is no land beneath the ice. Now in Arctic Ocean, the sun rises at around March time and then it's summer up until September. And when it gets to September, it's winter. Now in the summer time, when you are in the Arctic, the sun does not set. So it's up in the sky all day. So they won't have a nighttime. And in the winter, they won't have a daytime because it's nighttime all the time. It's dark all the time because it's the winter. So in the summer, it's always sunny, and in the winter, it's always dark. Look at the difference there. But remember, even though it might be sunny in the Arctic because the sun is up, that doesn't mean that they won't lots of snow storms and things like that because it's quite cold up there, and there's lots of snow and ice, and that gets there because it's really cold. Now I would like you to write down two facts about the Arctic ocean. I've done one for you at the bottom. I've written, "The Arctic ocean is covered by a thick sheet of ice." Can you write one more fact. The Arctic ocean hmm, and you can fill in the gap there. Pause the video, have a go at that now. Well done. Now some animals in the North Pole look like this. We've got polar bears, which you may have seen before, a narwhal whale, which you may have not heard of before, I hadn't really heard of them before, and they've got a really, really long sharp, almost like a horn on the front of their nose. Then we've got walruses which have huge tusks coming down from their face, and then some shrimp, which a teeny tiny little animals in the ocean. Can you draw two animals that live in the North Pole? Pause the video, have a go at that now. Well done. Now oceans on or near the equator. Here's a picture to remind us of the imaginary line that goes around the centre of our earth. Now the water is much warmer near the Arctic Ocean because the equator has lots more sun, is exposed to a lot more sunshine. Because remember in the Arctic Ocean, it's sunny for half of the year, the sun is in the sky, and in the winter it's dark, so it's much colder in the winter. But it's cold all year round in the Arctic, whereas around or on or near the equator it's a lot warmer. There is no sea ice on or near the equator because it's warmer. It's almost what you would say... It's almost warmer because there is no ice. That's why it's warm. There is no ice. A lot more marine life live here as well compared to the harsh conditions in the North Pole. And there can be lots of storms as well near the equator, the on or near the equator. Okay? Now remembering those facts about the equator that is warmer and there is no sea ice and that there are storms and there is lots more marine life here. I would like you to write two facts. I've written the oceans around the equator are warmer than the Arctic. You can then write, "The oceans around the equator hmm." Pause video, have a go at that now. Well done. Now here are some animals that live on or near the equator. So we've got some stingrays. They are huge creatures in the water. We've got dolphins and we got some fish called salmon, which you might like to eat. I like eating salmon. I would like you to draw two of these animals that you might find on or near the equator. Pause the video, have a go at that now. Well done. You have worked super hard today. Well done! Can you give me a high five? So you're going to need to put your hand up like this. Ready? 3, 2, 1. Go! Great job. Now, if you would like to, you can ask your parent or carer to share your work on Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter by tagging @OakNational and using the hashtag #LearnwithOak because we would love to see some of your wonderful work that you have done today. I hope you have a wonderful rest of your day and I will see you next time. Bye.
