Scratch animation is a program available on all of our MacBooks in the district, just go to your spotlight and search for "Scratch" or look in your applications folder. Students can create stories, games, and animations. Using the Scratch website http://scratch.mit.edu/ projects can be uploaded and viewed around the world.
Ms. Roth and I team taught this unit last week to her freshman Interactive Media students. I think we would both agree we learned as much from the students as they did from us. The students loved the program and created some pretty amazing projects in a short amount of time. Animation is a huge industry right now and has many opportunities for careers. All ages of kids love this program, so if you are needing a new, fun, interactive tool, don't be afraid to try it out, I can help!
