The teaching and learning of the initial discipline of structured programming features frequent difficulties of assimilation and abstraction by the students. It is believed that the problems faced influence the dropout rates and failure routinely seen in higher education institutions. One possible alternative would be to relate the concepts of programming content using analogies of everyday situations that facilitate the understanding of the abstractions of discipline and present these issues in a dynamic and interactive way. The main purpose of this work is the construction of an animation to support the understanding and assimilation of concepts used to create algorithms and later codes. For this, the animation seeks to contribute to a more familiar way of presenting the initial content programming, difficult to understand for beginners. The aim is to use an analogy in order to act as a motivator and facilitator for students using the animation feature as more attractive technological option to the target audience.
