Scoring Hints: Keep the Following in Mind When Scoring for Conventions

<p>Scoring Hints: Keep the following in mind when scoring for Conventions: 1. Strong writing demonstrates a good grasp of standard writing conventions (e.g., spelling, punctuation, capitalization, grammar, usage, paragraphing) 2. Developing writing shows reasonable control over a limited range of standard writing conventions. 3. Beginning writing has errors in spelling, punctuation, capitalization, usage and grammar and/or paragraphing repeatedly that distracts the reader and makes text difficult to read.</p><p>Grade 6 Claymation </p><p>Claymation, hmmm ... what is claymation? If you know what animation is, claymation is the same thing, only with clay. The popular "Wallace and Gromit" are claymation. Claymation seems like something you would only watch on TV or on a video, but it is possible to make yourself. It's fun to! You need a few things to get started making claymation (of course). It's obvious you'll need some clay to give your character a look. To move your character you'll need wire and aluminum foil. For the sets I would use styrofoam but cardboard would work too. And last but not least you need a single-frame-shooting video camera. I guess your wondering what that is. It's a video camera that shoots only one little picture on the film. When you play it back, all the little frames blend together to form a moving picture. Now that we know what equipment we need, lets make the characters. Start with a wire "skeleton." Make it look like a stick person. Then put aluminum foil all over the wire. Next cover the "skeleton" with clay to look like what you want it to be. It's as simple as that. To make sets, cut out styrofoam on cardboard to look like what you want. Then cover it with clay, but if the cameras can't see the back, don't cover it with clay. Our characters and sets are ready. Let's film! Filming is probably the hardest part about claymation. First set your character up for your opening scene. Shoot one frame in that position, then stop filming. Now move your character to another position (the wire helps the characters pose, the aluminum foil makes it so the wire doesn't go through the clay). Film the characters in that position for one frame again. Keep doing this for the continuation of the movie. When your done, it feels great to watch what you worked so hard on. Claymation is a great creative activity. When you done you feel remarkable. This is a great activity to get interested.
