Hi Mason,
you can try something like the following
Table[
Plot[
Sin[x], {x, 0, a},
PlotRange -> { {0, 2Pi}, {-1, 1} } ],
{a, 0, 2Pi, Pi/10} ]
You'll then get a sequence of plots, each extending from x = 0 to x =
a, but with a increasing from plot to plot by Pi/10. You can then
select them all and choose Animate Selected Graphics from the Cell
menu to see a little movie of the function as a increases. Note,
though, that you'll also get an error message related to the fact
that the first plot is from x = 0 to a = 0, which Mathematica doesn't
like. You can ignore that error message or change {a, 0, 2Pi, Pi/10}
to something like {a, 0.0001, 2Pi, Pi/10} or turn the error message
off.
