In my last post ! shared our Mercury comics and this week, after we read about Venus in our Exploring Creation with Astronomy book, we made comic strips on some of the facts on Venus.
(Actually, this comic strip lesson was our first attempt and we went back to make our Mercury comics. Somehow, there seems to be more detail and artistry in our Mercury comics? I am planning and hoping that we will create a comic strip for each planet and chapter in our Astronomy studies.)
Creating comic strips is a wonderful visual method of narration. A picture can tell a thousand words! Comics capture loads of information!
Here are our comics on Venus ~

(Miss.L12 allowed me to write over her pencil dialogue and pictures in black pen so that they would scan better)
