Comics in My Classroom

ToonDoo  

Comics are an excellent project that could be used for a variety of subjects in a classroom. I personally think it would be very interesting for my students to create a comic strip about elements. These elements would have their own personality relating to the traits they exhibit in our lives. It would help the students to relate content with something they understand well, different personalities. I already try to create this connection between elements and the different traits with different personalities while tutoring and have received positive feedback. I also think comics would allow the budding artists in the classroom to better enjoy the subject matter. It is very difficult for students to listen to lectures all the time and comics would be a great way to change up the lesson plans. It would also be a great alternative assignment for a worksheet. I am very excited to test out this comic idea in my classroom and see if the students enjoyed it as much as I did.
