Social Studies: American Revolution, Colonialism, Christopher Columbus, and any historical event with important figures.
Use specific lessons to assess students understanding. Example: Christopher Columbus arrival to the New World.
1. Find comic strips with multiple characters
2. White out all the texts, including the title
3. Have students fill in the dialogue box with texts they might hear in a conversation between Christopher Columbus and his crew, or queen Isabella or the Tainos.
4. Title the new comic strip
5. Make a figure of one of the characters and complete a 10 minute free-write of this character. Highlight key works and transfer them over to the cardboard figure.
6. Collaborate with others to make a balanced mobile
7. Assess students on their texts. How close is it to the actual event?
