Animating Truth (Grades 4-8)

Program description

The issues that our students face in school today are very real. From bullying to peer pressure and from school violence to social anxiety, each student faces their own challenges every day. This program provides students the opportunity to explore an issue of their choice and develop a resolution to that issue using the art of animation. Students may work collaboratively or individually.
