Making a Ball Bounce.. Not Splash

Our first task of this term was to make a ball bounce about four times. I learnt in my 1st/2nd lesson these key points: 1- In Animation, exaggeration is used like plays in theatres (?) and unlike movies. Plays in theatres use exaggerated expressions, movements, actions and gestures because some ofthe audience are far away. On the other hand, in movies, the camera zooms in and out, allowing more subtle expressions, actions and so on. 2- Animationish is very hard to use, even with the tablets and pens (I take forever using animationish) 3- The assessment for this term is animations but it is not due until August or something.. Whoop! :D Anyways, the first task we were assigned to do was making a ball bounce. as said above, we learnt to make exagerated movements like: stretching the ball into a oval shape just before hitting the ground to express the gravity pulling down on it, flattening the ball when it hits the ground and the spacing of the balls to show speed. I was suppose to make it bounce but by the end of the lesson, I ended up with a ball splashing into water....haha -_-;; here it is but i accidently made it too fast:
