About this resource

What's inside this resource

Six equally sized blank boxes, arranged three across and two down, fill a single page beneath a title line reading "My Comic." No instructions, writing prompt, genre, or example panel appear anywhere on the page - just the title line and the six empty panels themselves. The template is content-neutral by design, meant to be paired with whatever story, prompt, or topic a teacher assigns separately rather than to stand alone as a lesson.

Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

  • Organize up to six moments of a chosen story, retell, or idea in a comic-strip sequence.

Teaching tips

  • Pair with a writing prompt, book, or class read-aloud before handing out the template, since it provides no topic of its own - students need an assigned or chosen story to fill the six panels
  • Introduce as a sequencing tool for retelling a story's beginning, middle, and end (or six distinct plot points), since the six-box layout naturally divides a narrative into parts
  • Have students fill in the title line above the panels to name their comic before drawing, since it's the only text field provided beyond the panels themselves

Skills covered

  • Visual sequencing — students can organize up to six moments of a story, retell, or idea across the blank comic panels.
  • Narrative planning — the title line and six-panel structure give students a simple frame for developing a comic.
