This week I come to you with an app, Comic Touch 2, by the makers of Comic Life. Comic Touch 2 can be used to introduce a couple of topics. Two which this app screams to use are dialogue and onomatopoeia. Comics can be a great way to showcase to students how these literary devices appear as text, as in the example below.
This app could be used to make a cover for a writing piece or even just a cover for any project.
Hmmmm, I see a comic book cover for…
Math: ‘The Adventures of Super Triangle and the League of Tangrams’
or
Science: ‘The Exciting, Spectacular, Amazing Properties of Water’
or
Social Studies: ‘Around the Community in 30 Days’
or
Art: ‘Meet the Artist volume 7 issue 2’
or
The ideas are endless… or are they… To Be Continued…
