Using comic life with poetry - 2007/04/20 06:06
I've used comic life with tenth graders when working on interpreting difficult poetry--it would work at any level.
What I do is put each line of the poem in a different frame (leaving blank space for students to draw).
Then, they need to draw a depiction of each line in the comic box. It helps them chart what the poet/poem is trying to say, and it's a fun activity. Plus, it's way easier when I ask "what do you think this line is about?" because they all want to share what they drew.
