The video is about a man who was unhappy all the time with the things that happened to him, he felt that everything bad always happened and that he had the worst problems. One day a man gives a lens, the lenses get started noticing the problems by passing people who were around him, he could tell if he was going through hard times also the other people even worse time.

All the time there are people who have a worse problem than yours, in some cases you could help in other cases could not do it but could be part of the solution.

4th CLASS

If you show a video to your students, you should know that the video should be about something that know or will engage students, because if you show videos of things that they do not know or not interested they won´t pay attention.

A good example of a video to show students would be the coke, everyone knows everyone has proven one, they will pay attention to the video because it interested them. At the end of the video you can give some questions to be answered basing on the video, this activity will be easier if you form teams because they will answer it easily and enrich the answers. When you show a video you need to involve thestudents to be able to go into the activity.
