Animated Fairy Lights
8th December 2020
Suggested Lesson Duration: 60mins
an iPad QuickLesson by Jacob Woolcock
Description
In this #QuickLesson we’ll learn how to use Keynote to create a simple yet fun animated GIF featuring some beautifully festive Fairy Lights.
By creating multiple slides with the same drawings but different colours we can quickly and effectively create a lovely animation that would work in so many contexts across the curriculum.
For today though, we’re looking at a fun end-of-term activity by decorating our classroom in Christmas lights!
