Animating website

I have continued on with the website this morning and added a couple more animations throughout, in order to keep the site interesting. Due to creating more of an interactive instruction manual that I want to follow on with a game, after deadlines, I am going to create an advert for the up and coming game, of which I will preview on the website. Screen Shot 2016-03-23 at 10.47.37

On the home page, at the bottom, I have provided this information. I think it is important to create a facebook and instagram page as well as link it to a youtube channel, due to potentially reaching out to more of an audience.  A lot of young children use social media and even though they aren’t the main users, the teachers that will consider using this assignment in class are frequent users.

I briefly went on to creating the facts pages about each planet, however have only completed the section on planet Earth. I like the layout of these pages, however I plan to make them more interactive down the line.  I really want to incorporate an animating solar system, somewhere in the website however I was tackle that task next week.  I might even include this on the planets information page and make toggles so you can switch between each planet. This is what the planet Earth page looks like so far:

Obviously this is a still image and therefore you cannot see the animations, however the moon is rotating 360 degrees around earth and the smaller earth is rotating at 360 degrees every two seconds, whilst the rays of sun move to and from the planet. This is a demonstration of how seasons/day and night work.
