Animation is a way of making a movie or clip from many still (not moving) images (pictures). The images are put together one after another and then played quickly to make it look like it is moving. Animations need to be between 12 frames (a complete picture) and 70 frames a second to trick the eye into thinking the pictures are moving. Animation can be made by: drawing, stop-motion or computer graphics. The person making the animation is called the animator.

=** Challenge **= You need to design an animation to represent one of the science body processes you have learnt this year. It needs to be accurate and use scientific terminology (vocabulary). You need to make sure it is clear for the audience to understand and recognise that the scientific process. It needs to be attractive and finished to a good standard as it will be seen by the next year's science class. Finally, you will need to make sure it is completed by the end of the unit.

=** Area of Interaction **= Human Ingenuity - we are going to look at how technology helps to modernise a traditional process.

=** Learner Profile focus **= Our learner profile focus for this unit is ‘Inquirer’. Add a sentence below to show how you think you will be an inquirer in this unit. media type="custom" key="18580034"

=** Inter-disciplinary Links **= This will be a shared unit with science, the animation builds on the content you have learnt in science class.
