Fairytales play a major role in a child's life as they have a real role in liberating a child's imagination, which is an essential for their growing education. It is important for a student to learn and understand anxieties that they can not yet express. An authentic way to teach students about fairy tales is to design a task that interprets what they believe the fairytale is about, giving them responsiblies of characters, logical sequence and the story ending. This project is extended over a period of time with ongoing learning through reading, writing and viewing. Further activites can be related to their own expierences where students gain a greater understanding of literacy and imagination around us.
 * INTRODUCTION **

The activity we have provided for students between the age of 9 and 11 years is to create an engaging stop motion animation movie created with modern day technology and the assistance of small clay models created by the students. This project is designed for students to complete over a six week period, when an allocated amount of time will be allocated per week within the classroom to progress on the task. In this time students will learn and discover how to use technology, the process of editing, organsiation and planning skills, logical sequence of chronological order and expand on their reading and writing skills. At the end of the four week period students will present a fairy tale flip movie to the class and their parents, while briefly discussing how they created it.
