I created the video (see below) using Windows Movie Maker and iMovie to narrate the story of “The Dark” by Lemony Snicket. I used it for Micro Teaching #2.
Summary of the story depicted in the video:
‘The Dark’ by Lemony Snicket is a story about a little boy named Laszlo who is afraid of the dark. During the day, the Dark lives in the basement and at night the Dark spreads itself all over Laszlo’s house. Every morning, Laszlo visits the Dark in the basement, hoping that if he pays the Dark a visit, the dark won’t visit him at night. But, one day, the Dark comes to his room at night. It asks Laszlo to follow it as there is something that it wants to show Laszlo. Of course, Laszlo is scared and quite uncomfortable when he learns that the Dark want him to go into the basement. The Dark leads him to a chest of drawers that nobody ever opened. On opening it, Laszlo finds electric bulbs in the drawer. Laszlo thanks the Dark for its help and from that day onward he is no longer afraid of the Dark.
