WInter and Summer Solstice

Today Shannon and I have made this animation explaining what Winter and Summer Solstice is. Shannon and I had to make sure we got the timing and information correct. I enjoyed doing this because I learnt lot's of new things about Winter and Summer Solstice. Another thing I learnt was how to make an animation. This was really fun making my first animation.
