This unit of work introduces the basic concept of animation, by encouraging class discussion about ‘what is animation?’ in the first lesson. Students then have an opportunity to explore these basics by creating their own ‘zoetrope’ sequence. A wide range of contextual sources are explored to strengthen student understanding of animation, leading to a storyboarded final stop motion animation being created by students in pairs. As part of this unit of work, you will reviece: Powerpoint presentation to guide lessons, activities and group discussions A planning sheet for Zoetrope activity A planning sheet for Stop Motion activity

A powerpoint resource exploring flipbooks and claymation with lots of examples by established animators and students for inspiration. A fun idea for an afterschool/lunch club.
