Stargirl Comics Update - due Monday in class
Over the past week, during stations and work time, students have been given over two hours and 20 minutes to work solely on the Stargirl final comic. At the beginning of class today, about 1/4 of all students completed the final product. Many students were close to finishing at the end of class today, with about 30 minutes to an hour of work still left to do over the weekend.
I hope to see some great Comics this Monday. Have a great weekend.
