Original Comics 2012

Spring Semester is almost finished!

Some of you are still working on your Opinion Essay and are finishing drafts of older essays. When you finish all of your essays, you can take time to do something fun before summer holiday. Please try making your own original comic at: MakeBeliefsComix.com. Kevin will give you instructions.

When making a comic ...
1) Take some time to think about your comic. Following are some possibilities.
  • It can be funny.
  • It can be serious.
  • It can state an opinion about something.
  • It can tell a story.
2) Give it a title.
3) Type your name in the name box.
4) Follow capitalization rules and one space after a period.
5) Ask Kevin to check your spelling.
6) Print the comic and wait for it to print before closing the site (in case you need to print again).
7) Be prepared to re-do it if there is some very strange mistake.
8) Give your printed comic to Kevin.
* Kevin will post these comics on the website, so we want yours to be as good as it can be!

Archives of last year's student comics.

After today's class, please check this website to see if your name is on the list for completing all your essays. If you are completely finished, the class on July 19 is optional for you. However, if you come on that day, I will talk with you individually about your writing.

The list of names is on the previous post; Progress Update, July 1.
