Pixilation Lesson Plan
This week I looked at a lesson plan for a project dealing with pixilation from this website called, "Teach Animation". When I clicked on the link, it show-cased an example animation; it also provided the lesson plan. This particular lesson plan did not only provide the standard criteria within a lesson plan (objective, introduction to the project, list of materials, and evaluation), but there was also a section about different ways to pixilate and two different exercises that you could do with the students: class collaboration and small group collaboration. The lesson plan also gave a list of what you can give students to consider. This part of the lesson plan was the most helpful for me because I wouldn't really know what to have them consider when it comes to pixilation animation. I would use this lesson plan for a project with my class.
What a great lesson plan. You wouldn't need to use a video camera you could do it the same way we have been doing in class with a digital camera. I hope you do this some day in your classroom. The kids would love it!
