Flip-in' Heck!







I have never made an animation before, but have been exploring it's possibilities in response to some questions from my students. I thought it would be interesting to create an evolving, collaborative animation, by starting a 'flip book'. I have included a few guidelines on the backcover for those of you, who like me, have never made one of these before. I hope it works for you, I can't wait to see what happens to it and nor can my 5 year old students!

Have fun!

PS If you have your sound turned on for this film clip, my husband's 'perfect' is refering to the quality of 'flipping' not the work itself! I used the video setting on my camera to record the progress and it was really easy to upload to the blog.

How much fun! Can't wait to be part of the story. And how brilliant that you always link your books to your classroom practice!

Oooo, neat-o, Mzzzz Lydia is revolutionizing the book exchange format! . . .hmm, I just realized that I will be the last to add to your flip book! {:-[ Well, if there's not any more room, I'll just add an element to the reverse side, that way you could flip the book from back to front as well. Hooray!
