Learn Through Comics..The Fun Way !!


Team: Sridevi, Akanksha, Indira, Jyothi, Pushpa

Writing comics is a fun way to learn a language!

This amazing site http://www.writecomics.com/ allows you to create your own comics within a few minutes.  Plus, you don’t even need to register.


It’s great to do with your own students in the computer room or , alternatively ,set this task as homework . This is an application ideal for all the grades. It helps to build the language skills. It is also a great site for teaching foreign languages.

Create your very own comic strip:
Choose a background by clicking on your choice
Choose the people or the animals. You can also add props and/or aliens
Then, the speech bubbles, as many as you need
Type the text
If you change your mind about something, double-click to delete it
Add as many scenes as you need
A minus point of this website is that you cannot save or embed your comic strip. You can however, copy the url or use a screen capture program to take a picture of it and then embed into your blog.

Things to do in class: By using comic strips, you can:
 Practice tenses
 Write role-plays
 Conduct an interview

So, what are you waiting for ? Comic away !!
