Rationale
   
The Unit of work was called Living Systems and we had been studying flora and fauna, keeping worm farms, growing mould, etc. Lots of fun!

As part of that the students were asked to use Kahootz to demonstrate a Life Cycle or Food Chain. The task involved them developing a storyboard/plan before they began making scenes. The storboard should demonstrate a sequence of events.

Choose appropriate World and Objects for the project.
Animate Objects using keypoints.
Link Scenes.
Use camera keypoints to move through each scene.
USolve the problem of making something look like it is being eaten!
