Comics and cartoons are a great way to engage students in the stories they are reading, the information they are researching, and the ideas they are exploring in your curriculum.
Wixie makes it easy for students to combine images and speech bubbles to create comics and cartoons that summarize, teach, retell, inform, raise awareness and more.
In this project, students create a comics to summarize important plot events in a book they are reading.
Students choose a scientific cycle and create an illustrated or animated story to share their learning of the process.
Once students became experts, they created comics to share their expertise through a cartoon tutorial.
Comics are a fun way to get and share information. In this project, students use comics to inform others about important health issues.
Students create comics (and record dialogue) to practice situations such as introducing themselves, meeting a friend, giving and receiving direstions, ordering food and more.
