Comic Writing Unit | Grade 3 to 6

Kids love reading graphic novels, so let’s get our students writing them

as well. This fun and engaging unit explores the world of comic writing.

Through guided hands-on mini-lessons and independent centres, students will learn the features of a comic and build key skills. They will put their

learning into practice by creating and writing their own comic using

the structured writing process provided. This unit is sure to keep

students from grades 3 to 6 hooked.

Sections of the teacher slides and student writing package are editable.

This package contains:

~ Detailed teacher notes (PDF)

~ Teacher instructional slides with hands-on lessons (Google Slides)

~ Student writing package for creating a comic (Google Slides and PDF)

~ Editable assessment checklists (Student/Peer) and rubric (Teacher)

I have divided the student package into 7 parts for students to easily follow along as well as make it easier for you to check-in with their progress.
