Now, let's create! Students, can you
identify any nouns, adjectives or verbs
from today's "Garfield" comic strip? If so, what other English words
have similar meanings as those used in this comic? [Tip: Use the online
dictionaries.] Now, let's
rewrite this comic, using different nouns, adjectives or verbs. In fact...
...you can write your new cartoon using
Garfield's Comic Creator! Then, create another Garfield comic, using your own new ideas!
Special thanks to Jim Davis, creator of Garfield

Teachers, in addition to your own ideas to using comics to teach English, explore
Grammarman, a site with comics for EFL/ESL students, and
Awesome Comics, a webquest for ESL students. The creator is an ESL instructor and author in Thailand, Brian Boyd. Also, see
