I'll definitely use Pivot again this year and beyond. Once we sort out our network issues, we can hopefully share some of the children's work on our school site. Thanks also for recommending Sam Animation - I'd not heard of it before. I'm downloading it now so that I can try it out for myself. I try to add things to the blog banner as I add posts about different topics... I think I need to add a picture of Wallace & Gromit next! Thanks for your comment Lucy.

Lots of wonderful resources - thank you. Pivot Stickfigure Animator is a very powerful program and possibly not used enough in schools. We had some issues too - unfortunately, we cannot load the pre-made characters. However, the students have still created some amazing sequences. Have you seen SAM Animation? http://www.samanimation.com/ It is another free program available for Mac & PC and is part of a lovely program to encourage students to explore areas of Science through animation. However, you can use it to create any kind of stop-frame animations. Thank you once again! Lucy :) PS: Your blog banner is wonderful! Hi Mark and thank you for your excellent post!
