This week is ParaNorman. I love doing this movie during this month. It’s just a little bit scary, but everything turns out alright in the end. It’s also a brilliant example of stop-motion, which is what our activities last week and this week are building up to.
Here is the link for the downloadable materials. (I hope this works…please let me know if you have any problems so I can fix it!)
