Narration on how to make a dog origami.

Firstly, cut a piece of paper into a

perfect square. Then, fold the paper into
half. Again, fold the paper into half to
create a crease. After that, fold the two
edges of the triangle to make the ears of
the dog. Also, fold the other edge of the
triangle too create mouth of the dog.
Lastly, draw the features of a dog.

Well Done !
Congratulations !

Thank You.

Conclusion
A good demonstration is
an audio-visual
presentation. It is not
enough that the teacher
talks. To be effective,
his/her demonstration
must be accompanied by
some visuals.

To plan and prepare

adequately for a
demonstration, we first
determine our goals, the
materials we need our
steps, and rehearse. The
strategy of class and time
management is the most
fundamental element.
