Rolling out Graphic Biographies!

Meaghan Mihalic

I used the Three Close Reads for Graphic Biographies introduction today in class! By the end of my second class, students were enthusiastically calling  Mr. T! Laughing They took some notes on key definitions, and many took the suggestion to use illustrations or examples to bring the ideas to life. Then, we used two graphic biographies, and in table groups, they analyzed and determined the path to reading them.

  •   This is impressive work done by your young students! It didn’t occur to me to ask them to illustrate the steps for reading a graphic biography. Did you notice that introducing the Three Close Reads skills helped students better understand and interpret the graphic biographies in context? Did you organize a debrief session with all the groups?
