Homework Offered
There will not be any assigned homework, but students will be encouraged to read from a graphic novel of their choice between classes and come prepared to share examples of the elements we have learned about. Students might also choose to post pictures of examples they have found on a third-party resource called Padlet, but this will be entirely optional.Assessments Offered

Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
