In this one-time class, we will learn how to make our very own computer animation using ABCya!  First, we will observe and discuss examples of computer animation, and how it is useful in today's world.  Next, we will explore the various tools and begin creating a computer animation of our own.  When complete, your learner will have their own digital painting that can be saved, downloaded, and shared!  The possibilities are endless!  After creating the animation together, we will engage in a discussion in which each learner will have the option to share their creation with the group and talk about it.  This concluding activity promotes positive discussion, strengthening communication as well as critical thinking skills.

Note:  The free version of abcya.com works best on a PC desktop, laptop, or Chromebook.  Mobile devices only offer limited access for free.

Learning Goals

This lesson provides several positive learning outcomes.  By focusing on computer animation, the learners are able to gain a deeper understanding of how it is created and used in today's world, and how useful it can be in a variety of ways.  Other learning outcomes include positive communication and critical thinking skills.  Group discussion during the presentation and activity promotes positive communication, as does sharing the animation in the concluding discussion.  Additionally, the learners will utilize critical thinking skills by applying, analyzing and synthesizing their prior knowledge and experiences into the class discussion as well as into the computer animation they create.

Other Details

Parental Guidance
This class uses ABCya.com/animate. This tool is vetted and pre-approved on Outschool.com. Learners may use it to create their own original computer animation. An account is not required, and I will only be using it in a screen-share.

“How can I be useful, of what service can I be?
There is something inside me, what can it be?”
-Vincent Van Gogh

My name is Kim, and I am a dedicated educator interested in providing an enriching educational experience for your student(s).  I graduated from the University of Georgia with a Master of Education in Early Childhood Education, a Bachelor of Fine Arts in both Art Education and Arts/Crafts (Ceramics), and I hold a Georgia Educator Certificate (T5) in Art (P-12).  I specialize in Art Education but have taught core academic classes as well.  I have over 25 years of experience in public, charter, and private schools, as well as homeschool and online education.  Given my range of experience teaching students of various ages and ability levels, I have a well-rounded view of education.  I pride myself on the ability to adapt to many different learning styles and curricula, making me highly responsive to the individual needs of each child while fostering each child’s physical, social, and intellectual development.  I am versatile enough to suit whatever educational needs you may have in whatever format may be best suited to facilitate your students’ changing needs and goals.

My enthusiasm and passion for education have given me the ability to demonstrate effective classroom management strategies while maintaining a fun and respectful learning environment.  I possess strong organizational and communication skills that allow me to work effectively with students, parents, staff and the community.  I am patient and caring, and I provide a safe, prepared environment in which students can learn in a nurturing and positive manner.  I strongly believe that each student must be given the time and individualized attention they deserve.
