The Teachers' Animation Toolkit

Including animation in
your classroom can:

• improve literacy and numeracy

• develop critical
thinking, communication and problem-solving skills

• enhance
teamwork and negotiation

• encourage creativity

This toolkit, together with an extensive companion
website, will give you the confidence to use animation in your classroom. From
teaching basic flip-book animation right through to producing an animated film,
there are drawing templates for the less confident artists and
tried-and-tested schemes of work, plus advice on how to use animation equipment
and what technology and software is available.

This practical,
cross-curricular resource is particularly suitable for use with students aged
11-16, although many of the activities can be adapted for older or younger
students. It can be used in Art, Media Studies, ICT and many other subjects to
engage learners of all styles and abilities.
