This ICT Scheme of Work is a 6 week project for KS3 students (who have 1 lesson a week). It focuses on graphical manipulation and animation using Adobe Photoshop and Flash so is ideally suited for Year 8 students, although no prior knowledge is required as this SOW provides detailed step-by-step instructions on all the tasks.

This is lesson 6 of the 6 lesson course. Lesson 6 covers:

  • Understanding what backdrops are
  • Creating a backdrop to give the “illusion” of the animated object moving
  • All step-by-step instructions are included that demonstrate how this can be achieved

Lesson 6 is being sold at a low price. To grab a bargain, select the bundle package for the entire SOW!

The skills this Scheme of Work covers include:

  • Understanding pixels, resolution and pixilation
  • Looking at aspect ratio and the importance of maintaining it
  • Learning about Photoshop layers and how they are used to create complex images
  • Looking at the Magic wand tool
  • Understanding brightness, contrast, hue, saturation and colour balance
  • Mini project: Creating a unique image using all the skills from the previous lessons
  • Understanding what animation is
  • Looking at Flash layers and how locking and hiding them helps
  • Understanding how to create basic shapes in Flash
  • Analysing the different tweening techniques and understanding what they are
  • Understanding what backdrops are

Each lesson begins with objectives and outcomes being introduced to the students. All tasks, whether in Photoshop or Flash, include detailed step-by-step instructions. Teachers can demonstrate the process themselves and then allow the students to use the step-by-step guides to complete the challenges themselves.

Extension resources are available throughout the lessons to support the more capable student.

Worksheets (including differentiated tasks) are included, along with two homework’s which are linked to the SOW.

There is room for two assessments during the SOW. However, these assessments are NOT included (only blank slides are left), due to different schools assessing student work in varying ways. However, if you want the assessments linked to this SOW I am more than happy to provide them for free if required, when this SOW is purchased.

The main SOW is generated using Microsoft PowerPoint, and the information appears using basic animations, so students can experience the information one part at a time.

In addition, the Photoshop and Flash files that are part of the varying challenges and tasks (as well as the demonstrations) are included, reducing teacher time as the resources don’t need to be created.

The linked worksheets are provided in Microsoft Publisher.

All resources are FULLY editable, so they can be adapted to suit the needs of your students.

I would really appreciate your feedback on my work, whether you download the free resource, pay for individual lessons or purchase a bundle. Thank you for reading.
