Reading a Comic Strip

Hi all!  This week we have spent a lot of time learning how to read magazine articles.  We found out quickly that these nonfiction articles are arranged much differently than the picture books and chapter books we are used to.  By learning how to read all of these different genres, we get a lot more out of what we are reading.

 

What about reading a comic strip?  Does a comic strip tell a story the same way that one of our picture books does?  I’ll let YOU decide.  Today in the computer lab you are going to have a comic strip read to you.  Click HERE to get to Toon Books: Ottos Orange Day. Click READ TO ME and when you are done hearing the page, click the right arrow to move on.  

 

*** At the end of Chapter One… please leave a comment with your  thoughts . How does a comic strip tell a story differently than a picture book?  What do you feel is similar to a picture book?

  2. I think that the difference is a comic strip shows who is talking with a talking bubble.A picture book shows all the words on the top or the bottom in chunks but a comic strip show a talking bubble for who is the one talking.

  7. I was thinking that the comic is different from the picture book because they say stuff in their mind that they are thinking. The picture book just says what they are doing.
