GRADE 12 · LESSON 4
Tell It in Five Minutes
Pick one card. Explain it out loud — what you wanted, what the AI got wrong, what you fixed.
By the end of this lesson you will have — one 5-minute video about one Story Card, including one thing the AI gave that you threw away and why, plus a one-page Story Sheet that collects your cards
What you'll show at the end: A 5-minute video kept on your own device, and a one-page Story Sheet in Google Sites (or a Google Doc) that collects your cards, with the Explain-it video box filled as "saved on my device" and the date.

Follow these steps
- Pick one Story Card that has What I threw away — and why filled in. Write the 3 lines you must say: what you wanted, one thing the AI gave that you threw away and why, and what you fixed without AI. Then lock a prediction: which part will be hardest to explain out loud?
- Want practice questions first? Copy the question from the box next to these steps into the AI you use (check its age rule first). Throw away any question that pushes you to say something untrue, and answer the rest out loud once. No AI you can use? Practice with the sample AI answer on this page.
- Record yourself for 5 minutes with your phone or laptop camera, with no AI and no script to read from, only your 3 lines. Keep the video on your own device. You don't upload it anywhere to finish this lesson.
- Watch it once and note where you got stuck. Then open Google Sites (or a Google Doc) and make one Story Sheet page with one short block per card. Don't click Publish; keep it private. In the Explain-it video box, write "saved on my device" and the date.

What I wanted: a chess club notice of 60 words or fewer with the day, time, and room.
What I threw away — and why: "Last year we won the regional championship", because it was made up.
What I fixed without AI: I moved the meeting details to the first sentence so the news comes first.
