This animation was drawn and animated in Doink app on the ipad.
The song was composed in Garageband on the ipad.
The movie was edited in imovie and uploaded here. I plan on using it as a hook for my art students to introduce our Giraffes Can Dance art project.

1. Read the story or watch the video (below)
2. Practice drawing giraffes by placing one giraffe at each table and asking students to
a) manipulate the giraffe into a dance pose
b) photograph it with the ipad
c) import the photo in the brushes app
d) draw over the photo
e) email the finished drawing to me
f) I print the drawings for them
3. Students turn the prints into paintings
I've seen this book inspire lots of art projects on Artsonia.com,
so I can't wait to give it a try with my students.
So much fun realizing my dream~Giraffes Dancing drydenart.weebly.com/1/post/2012/07… w/ #ahsd25 teachers @mrschureads @ahsd25tech twitter.com/fuglefun/statu…
