Animated Assistants: OTHERS

You know that drawer in your house that tends to collect everything that doesn't really fit anywhere else. You might call it a "junk drawer" or "other place." Well, this is the "Junk Drawer or Other Place" for the Animated Assistants  that are not people or animals. 
That said, if you find yourself in a quandary on how to explain Wump World to a bunch of third graders,  then Agar the Alien is your go-to...uhh..Alien.
Or maybe have Ernesto Earth teach about recycling and conservation and earth science. If you are teaching Chemistry then Hyrox could help...and then there's Danny Dookie....What can I say? Danny is very popular with the High School crowd!

Click on the videos below to see a sample.

Agar the Alien

If you think you have met someone who is in a panic, well you haven’t seen anything yet.  Agar the Alien is completely sad and wild and in a panic because his home planet is being destroyed by beasts from another planet.  Good luck following his panic, I mean story.  As is his appearance, there isn’t anything like it.

Asian Statue

Yessireee, even a stone statue can talk.  The statue’s antiquity status gives you an opportunity about history from the mouths of those who were built to preserve it.  Enjoy and bring us your statue and topic.  Give history a voice!

Bay Grass

Created specially for education about the Chesapeake Bay, bay grasses learned that they could talk too.  All it takes is imagination, a simple picture, a couple of eyes and away we go to get that student or audience attention.

Danny Dookie

Danny shocked the high school he visited three times in order to teach about urban pollution and how not picking  up dog poop is, well, not good.  Danny absolutely grabbed the biology classes' attention as he detailed information and led the class in hands-on activities with microbes and worms captured in deep well project slides.  He may look silly, but he is seriously serious.

Death

With this look and with that voice, is any wonder the high school students learned a lot about pandemics during this demonstration lesson?

Diamond Dandy

Diamond Dandy leads you on a most difficult discussion/debate about endangered species.  With great music, hard facts, and manipulatives of some of our most endangered animals you will debate this difficult topic…who do you save when  you have only limited resources and many animals in need.  This is truly serious fun as you learn to discuss and debate priorities.  What would you do?

http://www.ecrcme.com/store/p28/Scramble_Letters_to_Words_with_Assistant_%22E%22.html​

"E" is for Edgar

When is a letter not just a letter?  Well, it is when it's in a word or a letter like E that talks to you.  If you ever want to capture the attention of the youngest audience during English Language Arts, have the letter talk and deliver the instructions about key words and syllables in science vocabulary.

Ernesto Earth

You have just heard Ernesto Earth where everyday is Earth Day …get it?  He can take your environmental science lessons to a new level of excitement. We dare you to prepare a script with ECRCME where we can act out a lesson together.  You will be amazed how young people think he is real when Ernesto answers your questions. 

Hyrox

Hyrox became a star as a demonstration teaching assistant in high school chemistry classes.  With rehearsals, Hyrox became a player in a two-part play with the real person teacher.  Students did double takes as the teacher walked around the classroom with clicker and interacted with Hyrox on the giant screen talking to them.  Now this is Motivation Education at its finest and helped making covalent bonds downright fun.

Manny Microbe

No matter what it is, no matter what it is about,  a talking character can be created.  From giant creatures to the very small creatures, they can all tell you their story your way with our creative animations.

http://www.ecrcme.com/store/p68/Climbing_Mt._Everest_Virtual_Bundle.htm

Old Man Everest

What a mountain, what a voice, and what a knowledgeable treat for what is often a great curiosity.  How do you climb Mt. Everest?  What is true about the tallest mountain in the world.  Well, Old Man Everest is ready to lead you in learning and exciting action as you “climb” Mt. Everest with Old Man Everest!

http://www.ecrcme.com/store/p31/Penny_Plane_Helps_w%2F_the_First_Woman_to_Design%2C_Build_and_Fly_an_Airplane.htm

Penny Plane

Penny Plane is proud to bring you both an untold history about an aviator inventor as well as how flight works.  Thrust, drag, weight and lift is brought to light, but so too is the untold story of Miss Todd who built and flew her own airplane in 1910.

Princess Wilomena

Wilomena is another specialized character created to help address the topic of runoff.  Every ECRCME character can become the lead actor in a story that interacts, presents information or leads a demonstration on how to do an activity in any topic.  ECRCME instructors love to put them to work as teaching assistants.

Professor Eco-Havoc

Professor Eco-Havoc brought his negative perspective to middle school students beginning SERVICE LEARNING projects to improve the school property by restoring natural pockets all over the property.  Eco-Havoc is not nice.

Roberto the Robot

If you need a Robot, this character and his voice is your ticket to grabbing the viewers' attention.  Watch out for that head movement, it is something adjustable and impressive.

http://www.ecrcme.com/store/p61/Tall_Tornado_Tale_Fun.htm

Tommy Tornado

Tommy Tornado will take you into the world of Tall Tales with his disgust and anger at Pecos Bill and his horse, widow-maker.  How dare they yank him back up into the sky very soon after he has begun his giant path of destruction.

ttp://www.ecrcme.com/store/p25/Tangram_Challenges_With_Teaching_Assistant_Tony_Tangram_.html

Tony Tangram

Tony Tangram is a cultural art all unto himself because he arrived 1400 years ago from China and has provided art depth and perspective ever since.  He possesses “story power” because with just a little of moving is body around, he is another story entirely. Look, now I am a whale!!!
