Storyboarding Students then draw one picture from the selected story that they think nobody else will draw. Emphasize that qualification: something that nobody else will draw. As a group, you are going to put the pictures into the proper sequence silently, just by pointing. Then discussion…

Day Two
8
Survival? We’re Flipping Out Animation, whether a flip-book or full-length Disney movie, is simply telling a story by finding the right sequence of pictures and words. That is a powerful skill for kids to master.
9
Why Flipbooks? Flip books offer the most versatility and creativity in hands-on animation projects. They are not limited in length or materials, they’re inexpensive, require no viewing devices, and the process used to make a flip book forms the basis for all of the more sophisticated animation techniques, including filmed animation. Watch the ‘animatic’ or storyboarded version of Le Roi a Froid with students at https://vimeo.com/29976775. https://vimeo.com/29976775
10
Count ‘em Up! You can watch the number of frames click by in the bottom right hand corner to see how many ‘flip pages’ or storyboard sheets the animator had. Then students get the chance to become animators and make their very own stories come to flippable life.
11
Six Word Stories Students now turn their wordless tales into short stories. Really short stories. Ones made of only six words. They look at some examples: “Rapunzel! I am slipping! A wig?!” And then work on writing their own before having a class read-&-guess-aloud.

Day Three
13
Stranded?! Discuss how lovely it can be for travelers in the mountains and a few of the challenges we might face. Option: Read excerpts from Hatchet about what it’s like to be stranded alone in a strange and hostile environment and what you might need to survive. Image Credit: Karl Simon. Copyright 2010.

Survival of the Fittest Feeling a little low on funds, you’ve volunteered your students as part of a reality TV show where they have to try and stay alive.
15
Survival of the Fittest Depending on the whims of they game (and their ability to answer some critical questions) they gain and lose resources their group needs to make it to the end. This is one game where they can’t phone a friend!

Day Four
17
Yoo Hoo! Big Summer Blowout! Inspired by the fabulous sale shown in Frozen (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_ w105aWPNY) students participate in a fun exploration of supply and demand.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_ w105aWPNY They read examples and then put what they’ve learned into practice and see if they can supply the demand during an icy exchange!
