Comics can aide Literacy Development!

I am forever looking for things that will help my students connect with the story they are reading or the story they are writing. ReadWriteThink is a great source for educators to find useful online strategies to aide students in their development of various literacy components.





Specifically, I want them to be able to find the setting, main idea, and main characters. Comic Creator, an online interactive site, allows students to create their own comic. I use it to meet the aforementioned literacy goals. Students love it, and I know that they "get it" once they have a completed product. There is even a planning sheet!

    When I first saw this website, I didn't think it could really be used for secondary students. But I browsed some of the lesson plans for this age group and found some really great things for an English class. This website is great for all ages.
