How Comics Help English Learners
Comics are a fun way to learn English in a similar way to playing a game.
Highly visual, the pictures serve to provide clear context for the vocabulary and grammar that is presented in the characters’ dialogues.
As the pictures remove the need for huge amounts of text, the bite-sized texts are able to focus on the intended vocabulary and grammar.
The dialogue uses authentic language, complete with colloquial expressions and an appropriate register.
There is a crossword puzzle included to help learn and remember the vocabulary from the story, as well as a wordsearch puzzle.
The puzzles can also be accessed in interactive form on the Britlish website.
They can also be printed for use at home or in the classroom.
In addition to the puzzles, teachers can also use the comic in the classroom for role-play purposes, writing assignments, and for describing the pictures, as well as for many other purposes.
