Prep:
Teachers may start off with a class discussion on the questions of:
Why does life change? What if everything always stayed the same?
Teachers may also give out lined paper so that students may write down any ideas they may think of during their listening of the story, in conversations, or before their assessment.
Teachers must know how to create a narrated PowerPoint and how to publish it in a video. Teachers will briefly teach their students how they can do this for their assessment.
