Grade Levels: 4th Grade & up
Subjects: Art/Video/could be expanded to nearly every subject
Purpose & Features: iStopMotion for iPad is an app designed to help students create stop motion animations (like claymation movies) and time-lapse recordings. This fall, middle school students created many stop motion masterpieces in Mr. Jones's stop-motion movie elective class - from simple artistic "post-it worm" videos to claymation "feature films."
Project Ideas: Create original narrative films in English, illustrate a certain processes or make an "animated" diagram in Science, film a story and narrate over it (English or foreign language), animate a book or story as an alternative to a book report, illustrate a certain event or conflict in history...
