Teaching animation can be challenging; introducing simple flip-book exercises on the first day of a rotation helps students quickly build confidence and grasp foundational animation principles. From this hands-on start, learners progress to basic digital techniques—such as animating objects in Adobe Express—reinforcing timing, motion, and sequencing. The course also exposes students to a range of animation software, explores how the arts inform animation practice, and highlights potential career pathways in the field.

What do you do when a student enters the art classroom with big feelings they are struggling to regulate? Have them make art about it! This workshop explores three stories where elementary-aged students used artmaking techniques to work through their emotional state in the art classroom, including techniques such as ‘angry scribbles’ and ‘containment folding’. Participants will get to try out these artmaking techniques during this workshop and leave with a resource on how to implement this in their own classroom.
