What are we doing?
Your goal will be to create a short, short animated story using a software tool called GoAnimate. A story has five basic elements: Characters, setting, plot, conflict, resolution. It isn't as hard as you think - you've been reading, watching, and listening to stories since you were born.
Why are we doing it?
This project will give you a chance to practice your writing and revising skills. The text-to-speech feature works best with correct spelling and complete sentences. Your classmates, teacher and I will be there to help you revise and edit your work, so don't worry about being perfect.
This project will also give you a chance to use a popular video creation tool, which has a lot in common with other video creation tools. You will need to think critically, work collaboratively, and be a problem solver.
