Welcome back to a very important half term.
In amongst the revision, we'll be doing work in other subjects that links to this half term's theme, Mythical Monsters.
In particular, we will be creating our 'stop-go' animations that involve a mythical monster somewhere in the story line as part of our Computing curriculum.
Here's a little clip from a famous animation, Morph, to get you thinking about what you might need. Look closely at the short story in this clip, the setting / backdrop created by the animators and think about what you might like to include in your own animation.
Morph & the Abominable Snowman
If your animations are good enough, we might be able to share them with our Yr R buddies!
