Comic Book Covers
After spending a week on their comic books, learning about line art and clear storytelling, the lesson was finished off with learning about comic covers. The students discussed what made a 'good' or 'bad' comic cover from a couple of choices. They discussed how a comic cover summarizes a story by having a clear a subject, how there is strategic emphasis, and how line art is utilized!

Lesson Plan
Comic Covers
Students created their comic covers with the same materials as their comics - marker! We concluded that marker had the feeling of something being printed, hence it's good for comics. You can see the variation in ideas of the comics from the students!! Due to this project taking over a week, students were extremely proud of their finished comic, as they worked really hard.
