Description

 

During the spring semester of 2010, as part of my graduate program in English
Education, I took a class titled American Comic Book. I took what I learned there, turned
around, and immediately applied it to my own teaching. I teach 7th grade language arts
and developed a unit on understanding and creating comics, pulled from what I was
learning in the class at the University of Iowa, and utilized some other resources
including Great Source’s Daybook of Critical Reading and Writing, and ideas from other
books on using graphic novels as a teaching tool. The unit was taught during April and
May of this year. I have collected my lesson plans, examples of student work, and
much, much more on a website: http://sites.google.com/site/7thgradecomicsunit/.
