Epic Comic Creation!

Help me give my students art supplies to create epic creative comic books!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Smith-Dryden's classroom raised $931

This project is fully funded

My Project

I am requesting art supplies to create epic creative comic books. This comic book project will allow my students to use the literary knowledge they've accumulated over the school year to create a one of a kind graphic novel. They will use these art supplies to create a graphic novel layout and outline, design, and color. Students will be able to create a unique story line and bring it to life visually using these supplies.

This epic comic book project allows my students to create a custom story, plot line, and characters and be able to bring it to life by means of a visually artistic graphic novel.

My students love engaging in this project as a way to express themselves freely and openly.
