Stop Motion Love Stories- THE WINNER!

Wow! Today at lunch, we viewed all the completed Stop Motion Love Stories for our February contest.  We were very impressed with the talent of these students, all of whom were in Grade 6! The winner was up-and-coming animator Eli in Gr. 6 with “A Sad Love Story” followed by “A War Love Story” by Myles and Anson. Eli won $20 worth of Scholastic dollars to spend in the March Reading Club.

Here are the 2 winning submissions:
