Students will learn how to create their own comics by reading the "Stormbreaker" graphic novel. We will learn all about character development, setting, and creating a plot through conversation. Next, students will spend the rest of the year drafting their own comic book/graphic novel using the Make Your Own Comic book kits, colored pencils, and "Draw Comics the Marvel Way" book.
Students cannot simply look at the pictures to determine what is happening in "Stormbreaker." I chose this book because many of the students love the Alex Rider novels, and I hope to peak the interest of the lower-level readers. I would much rather have my students pick up a graphic novel than pick up no book at all!
