Day one: Students will learn the basic easy-to-master skills that visually draw a reader's eyes to a comic book page. 
Day two: We'll focus on comic book vocabulary and learn all about the things you can do in a comic book to make your comics addictive to readers. 
Day three: We're going to learn how comic book artists use everything from the frame, to setting and character's facial expressions convey an emotional atmosphere in their comics. These techniques are easy to master--once you understand them! 
Day four: We'll talk about story craft in comics and start creating a story for your comic characters.
Day five: We'll put together everything we've learned to begin our first comic book episode or comic strip. 

I actually got to learn how to teach comics from an iconic figure in the comics world named Scott McCloud just as his seminal book Understanding Comics had been released for the first time.  Since then I've taught over 15 comics classes in summer camps. I've also been invited into public schools and been awarded grants to teach comics to kids.  I come from a writing background, but comic books are a unique medium comprised of half writing and half visual story telling.  Teachers used to walk by the classes that I taught and snicker -- they'd never seen a group of boys so completely focussed and quiet before.
