Animate


 * Using animation is a way to engage students in videos a teacher has created, as well as provide students with the opportunity to demonstrate their knowledge of content through creating videos on their own. Below we've researched 4 different animation sites. We've listed them in the order we found most valuable for teachers. If you scroll to the very bottom of the page, you can see the rubric we used for ranking these sites in this order.**
