5. For each website you have to write different information. There may be times where you have to back to revisit a website to get additional facts.
Site #1 NOTES Title: Transcription - drawings
NOTE! For this animation, no words or steps are given. I thought this would be a great site to start with because it shows you the overall process while keeping it simple. For this animation, you will draw out what's happening. I have provided the 2 required drawings. See right side (click to open). After your drawings, briefly explain what is happening.
