Graphic Novels

Last year whilst on the Literacy Working Group, English colleagues mentioned Graphic Novels. I had no idea what GNs were, ignorance is no excuse, so I endeavoured to research them, Trialling some in S1/2, tieing into ACE Technologies Outcomes, some screenshots below.

Pupils are really enthused with them, replacing the normal CD Covers, Flyers etc 5 period DTP slot with CorelDRAW.

A creative pupil's 'own' character Dudey !


Scooby, he is still about.....





Simpsons theme. There is always a moral.......

Hi there. Saw your link to your blog on Glow. I love the graphic novels work your classes created. Did you use any particular software?

Sorry, that should say How did you use the software with the class (I'd already read the information about CorelDRAW.

We used POWERCLIP to import the pics into the shapes and text into the speech bubbles.
