Having blogged about the efficacy of comics as a tool in teaching literacy to school kids, here's me putting my theories into practice. Comics by the most recent groups of pupils in my Comic Art Masterclasses (click to enlarge)...
You see here front covers and some strips by pupils from year 6 and 7 in Malvern and Gloucester. The celebrities the four groups suggested for the "treads on a worm" demonstration were Will Smith, Megan Fox and, twice in one week, Winston Churchill. I know.
If you're developing a taste for this kind of thing, there's a whole archive of Comic Art Masterclass comics on my website, including these choice examples and many more...
