we all have story to tell

And aren't stories more fun with pictures? We are going to develop our art skills and share our stories through graphic novel autobiographies.

Through this unit you will learn about the history of this popular form of novel, some important authors, and how to develop your character and story. You will become both author and artist as we explore different formats and storytelling techniques.

This will be the major project for Spring quarter. Upon publication, we will have a coffehouse reading and art display.
