Landscape GIFs
3rd grade lesson overview:
In this unit students learned about the art of Animated GIFs. Animated GIFs are multiple images put together that play over and over again. It is similar to a small clip or short movie. For this unit students explored the application Brushes Redux in order to create their Animated GIF. This project allowed students to explore an art form many of them see on a daily basis.
