Understanding has expanded beyond communicative competence Superman: Legacy director James Gunn followed up the recent announcement of the movie entering pre-production with further details about the upcoming film. May include student who has some understanding but is too shy to speak. Reading and writing activities are incorporated into lessons. Period of continued vocabulary expansion to develop higher levels of language use in content areas. This period may last from two to four years.

Their books will allow you to see whether your students understand the concept of animation before adding the layer of technology. Each student can work on a very simple flip book of a bouncing ball, a flying butterfly, a buzzing bee, etc. You can make one to show them, or you can make a short one while they watch you. It will teach them better than any explanation the idea behind animation and how you can get your ideas across using the animation medium. Younger students will especially benefit from making a real tactile flip book using paper (yellow sticky notes make it easy) and a dark marker. Make a brainstorm poster of all the animation they can think of: movies, cartoons, etc. We have a selection on our Inspiration page ( go to page ), and some avenues for finding your own on our Teacher Planning ( go to page ) page.
