Series 2 | Lesson 8
Creators | Bernard Caleo & Mandy Ord
Graphic stories and comic books are hard to resist - they look good, they move fast, they have an energy and excitement - and they can take our reading experience to a whole new level!
Let’s hear from Mandy and Bernard about some of the different kinds of graphic storytelling, how they create them, and why they are such amazing FUN to read.
Resources include lesson plans for middle and upper primary students, each with their own activities and supporting resources.
