Children are loving the start of our new topic on Walt Disney, both about the man himself and his legacy, the Disney Corporation.

Today we looked at cartoon animation and made flip books to show the basic process.

As part of their learning, each pupil has been tasked with researching a specific  Disney film / character. The list of films is attached and each pupil knows which one has been allocated to them. This task was discussed fully with the class today and some were so eager they wanted to start right away, but there is no rush. Research notes and pencil drawing to be handed in on                      Monday 11th November.

What we are looking for:

A head drawing of the main character.                                                        Bullet points to highlight details about the character and film.  For example:

what was film about

when was film made,

how it was made,

how much did it cost,

who wrote the story,

how  were characters chosen

how long did film take to make

whose voices were used for main characters…

In general, anything that might be of interest to the class about their particular film.
