One of the most important questions to ask when considering a video clip for the classroom is: How can I get my students to interact with it?
One way of doing this is by bringing a very important tool into the equation: The teacher’s voice. In this lesson plan, students aren’t shown a video clip - they are told about it.

Hi Jamie,
Just wanted to say I love how your imagination comes into lesson plans like this one. I’m planning to use these ‘what happens next’ clips with a few classes soon. I’ll let you know how they go.
Mike =)
