Students will need to read comics for the class. These comics can be their own comics from home. I am willing to send digital and print comics, if your child is in need of comics. I will have digital comics on the classroom page. If you would like me to mail some print comics, send me your mailing address, with any comic book preferences. I will ship 5 different comic books. They will be mostly random, unless certain titles are requested. Any comic books that I would ship will rated family (with a E for Everyone, G rating, E 10+, or a “Approved by the Comics Code Authority" stamp.) Here is a list of the comics that your child might receive... * Raytoons Cartoon Avenue - Collection of kids stories * Quackup * Superman * Supergirl * Batman * Robin * X-men * Avengers * Spider-Man * Heathcliff * Jurrasic Park * Jonny Quest * Star Trek * Star Wars * Teen Titans * I have thousands of other titles. Feel free to make requests.
