  • Andra T. – Teacher

    Florida, USA

    I love it! Students who do not like to write are so excited to create a comic. And their comics are amazing! Every week I have my students create a comic using at least 2 of their reading vocabulary words. SO much more exciting than any other vocabulary practice!
