What is stop animation?

Benefits of stop animation in science teaching Helps students to develop an understanding of
the content because they reflect upon it in multiple ways.
Each representation makes students think about the content in different ways, which contributes to building understanding.
As each representation raises particular questions about the concept, students are regularly “checking” the accuracy of what they are trying to represent.

The challenge…
The BA Year 3 Primary Initial Teacher Educations students were asked to make a short animation on one topic of the Primary Science national curriculum

So now your turn…
Choose a concept you wish to demonstrate
Plan out what four or five images will illustrate the concept
Make the models and take four frames of each image
Show your results!
