However, she heard that you guys have some pretty bright imaginations and she wants your help with this comic strip! Everyone, when I come back into the room I am going to be a different person who needs your help. But, she is feeling completely uninspired! She doesn’t have any characters, or anything for them to say, or any sounds to make. So, she has a contract that says she needs to come up with a brand new comic strip. Who can tell me what a contract is? Right, it is an agreement that says she will do her job. She has a contract with the newspapers to create a new comic strip. We actually have the privilege of one of these artists coming to our classroom today! She has a very particular reason for coming to our classroom today. Transition: So, who do you think writes and illustrates these comic strips? Well, today we have a very special treat. We’ve seen how that comic used conversation and sounds to tell a story or a joke. What similarities do those conversations and sounds from the comic strips have with dialogue and onomatopoeia? That’s right, they are the same thing! Wonderful! Now that we have recognized this, we have seen a real-life use of the onomatopoeia and dialogue in those comic strips. What elements of the comic strips did we talk about? That’s exactly right, the conversations and the sounds. Great thinking everyone! Now let’s go back to the comic strips we were looking at. Repeat process with “onomatopoeia” and work with the class to discuss how that describes a sound that is written out in words. Have a student provide an example, and write it on the board. Who can tell me what these two words mean? Review with the class that dialogue is a conversation that is written down. As they answer write “onomatopoeia” and “dialogue” on the board. SHARE info about topic: Students, do you remember what we were talking about in our English time yesterday? Let’s think about those two new words that we learned yesterday. Reflection: -Why is it important for comic strips to include sounds and conversations? -Where else do we encounter written conversations and sounds? What kinds of sounds, if any, are in this comic strip? What do those sounds mean? How do we know that they are sounds? How do we know how to pronounce them? Make sure everyone has gotten a chance to see all of them.ĭescribe: Who can tell me what these are? What do they look like?Īnalyze: What is going on in these strips? What is being said, if anything? How can we tell that something is being said? Who are they talking to? Allow time for everyone to look at them and read them. These comic strips should include dialogue and onomatopoeia. Place the three different comic strips in the circle. Artifacts: Have students sit on the floor in a circle. ![]()
