A great comic activity for the new school term is for students (and teachers, too!) to create autobiographical comic strips talking about themselves, their families and summarizing the most important things about their lives, including special interests and goals. First, select a cartoon character as a surrogate to represent you and speak for you. After creating your comic, print it and exchange with your classmates so you can learn more about each other.
