After hearing about, reading about and thinking about stop motion videos this year my friend Tony over at Learn Me Sumthin' and I are plunging into this world with a group of 3rd and 4th graders. We decided to start small this year focusing on two grade levels and then next year possibly branch into more grade levels. The group will meet once a week for 5 weeks for an hour after school. We sent out the forms this past week and I was not quite sure what the response would be.
The response was awesome! We have 38 students who brought back forms expressing interest in joining the "club". So now we have to start laying some foundations for this to get off the ground successfully. We are crafting an agreement for the students to sign laying out the expectations for group members. Anyone have ideas of what we could include?
A big thank you to Kevin at Kevin's Meandering Mind for inspiring this journey!
Fun! It is amazing how creative kids can be with stopmotion. Can't wait to hear how it goes:-)
