Comic Central

  Last week we discussed how writing a comic strip was writing a short scene or a short story.  Clear beginning, middle and end.  We had been adding dialogue and details in our narratives, so writing a comic strip would be a great way to feature these crafts as well as the students' imagination. 
We shared in class different comic strips.  Some of the strips had 1, 2, 3 or more panels to share their thought.  We discussed how comic strips usually use humor.
I went on line and found a site where I can print strips already made in 3, 4 or more panels.  They are in the classroom and can be used during "free write" or lunch time.
The comic strip site was http://www.gocomics.com/.  Parents, this site is loaded with comic strips.  Please review the comic strips your child selects.  Some are geared more for adult humor.  We shared Marmaduke, Charlie Brown, Cathy, and Garfield. 
Here is one friend's work!
