Not a nice way to wake up
While one thing was happening, something else happened
Here is a good chance to use the past progressive
together with the simple past in the form "while one thing was
happening, something else happened." Watch the video clip and try to
use the suggested structure.You might begin this way: "The video clip begins with a very very sleeply little boy. ..."
If you can, try to tell the whole story. One verb you will want to use is "startle" which means to make some feel suddenly frightened or surprised by doing something they do not expect.
