Comic Creators
Below are some really great comic creators to use in your instruction. But how can we use comics in the classroom?
- Character Analysis: As students choose a favorite character from a story and they re-write that character into a comic strip. In their comic, students attempt to demonstrate how their characters would act in different situations.
- Re-telling of historical events: Ask students to create short comic strips about historical events.
- Create alternative book reports: Rather than writing a book report have your students create three to five frame comic strips covering key parts.
- Create digital citizenship lessons. Ask students to create comic strips to demonstrate proper responses to unsafe digital citizenship behaviors.
- Express feelings: Students can re-tell a situations that made them feel happy, sad, or mad. The use of facial expressions on comic characters is a nice way for students to express their feelings even if they don't write much within the scene itself.
