- Did I use the BEST word choice?
- Could I be more descriptive?
- If we closed our eyes and read the story would we have questions or would we be able to clearly visualize the actions, facial expressions, and tone of voice of each of our characters?

Love, love, love the idea of using comic strips for descriptive writing! It really wraps up everything the students have been working on all year - all the story elements, grammar, setting the tone, and lennnnnngggggthening your sentences to be detailed and precise. However, adding the element of using quotes directly from the comics takes the pressure off of the students to create a story. The story is already written - they just have to be the author of description. I can't wait to used this in my writing block.
Thanks! I think that the opposite would be great too. Give students a short, funny story, poem, riddle, or joke and let them create a comic out of it.

The Fun (and Effective) Way to Teach Quotation Marks
Sarah Major, M.Ed. is passionate about working in harmony with a child's immaculate design to support their learning strengths. As a Title 1 Program Director and Designer, Sarah earned awards for creating her own multisensory educational resources that have now been sold in all 50 states and over 150 countries. Sarah’s approach goes beyond verbal explanation, incorporating hands-on activities that utilize right-brained strategies to teach students difficult topics such as using quotations.
When I taught second grade, the majority of my students had a hard time with quotation marks. They were not sure how to use them, when to use them, or how to identify in writing the words that were actually being spoken by someone. This first surprised me and then puzzled me. I thought it was relatively easy to discern which the spoken words were when I read. I didn’t know how much of their difficulty was due to a lack of focus on the content of the text, or if they just needed to be taught quotation marks in a more direct way. In retrospect, it seems that the difficulty for my students might have been that when a child is reading a passage, they are speaking ALL of it. So, there can be a bit of a challenge to separate words spoken by a character in the passage from those the child is speaking.
No matter what the cause of confusion stemmed from, I knew that rather than verbally explaining a new or difficult concept, I needed to add some right-brain-friendly strategies. Once I infused my lessons with multisensory elements, my students were easily able to comprehend and correctly use quotation marks. The following lesson will show you how to help your students experience success, too! (This unit can last a week or two if you do all the suggested activities.)
For this lesson, we will use a simplified version of Little Red Hen , as it is chock-full of spoken words.
What You Will Need
- 4 Actors/Actresses*
- Character Identification Images
- Story of Little Red Hen
- Chart Paper or Whiteboard
- Colored Markers/Dry Erase Markers (5 different colors) *If 4 actors/actresses are not available, improvise with the number you have available, making sure to distinguish the different characters when speaking their lines. Another option is to use a picture and point to the characters when their lines are spoken. For groups over 4, you can split the lines or repeat the skit as many times as needed.
- Print the Character Identification images and cut out if desired.
- Write the story on chart paper or whiteboard, without quotation marks, or use smaller copies for individual use.
How to Teach
- After you get through the story this way, tell the children you will act out the play again, but this time they will only be reading the words that are underlined. This activity offers a visual and auditory experience that will reinforce their understanding through the spoken repetition of the words.
- Now would be a good time to go over quotation marks basics:
- Write the following example sentences on your whiteboard: Mom said, “Come in now.” “Can you play ball now?” Tom asked.
This activity will not only help the children understand what quotation marks mean, but it will help them in reading other texts. Best of all, their writing will reflect their understanding of how to use correct punctuation with conversation.
For this lesson, we will use comic strips to help children understand the connection between speech bubbles and quotation marks.
- Marker/Dry Erase Marker
- Writing Paper & Pencils
- Comic strips from newspapers or online. You will need copies of each strip corresponding to the number of speakers in the comic strip. Preferably, find comics that have super easy words.
Preparation
For each comic strip, write a brief story on your chart paper or whiteboard. Use the same words that are used in the dialogue in the comic strip but add surrounding words. Here is an example from a Peanuts® comic strip:
- Select your first pair or group of actors. If the comic strip you have selected for them has two speakers, you will need two children; if the strip has three speakers, you will need three children. Give each child a copy of the comic strip you have chosen and assign them parts. Let them practice the parts until they are ready. Of course, they don’t have to quote the comic strip exactly!
- Have the actors read or say the content of the comic strip in front of the class.
- Transition to Print
- Share with your students that in a comic strip, little speech bubbles are floating around that show what each person is saying. We don’t have any other words at all, just what each person says.
- Now direct their attention to the chart paper on which you have written the little story. Read it to them, following the line of text with your finger or pointing stick.
- Ask the children if they see anything that might signal to the reader what each person is saying. Point out the quotation marks and suggest they are like parts of the speech bubble as seen in the comic strip. “In fact,” (use a marker for this part of the activity) “we can just draw the speech bubbles right in the story!”
- Tell the children that having speech bubbles inside a story would be really messy and distracting, so we have replaced them with little marks on either side of the words spoken by each person.
- Take it Further
Follow up with these three hands-on enrichment activities to reinforce and solidify your child’s understanding of this tricky concept.
- Give the children a new comic strip and have them turn it into a story like you did on the chart paper. They would use the words from the comic strip, using quotation marks in place of the speech bubbles. The students might enjoy working in pairs on this activity.
- Have the children start with a typed story and, working with a partner, turn it into a comic strip that uses speech bubbles.
- Have the children work with a friend and write an original comic strip/story which they will illustrate AND write in story form. Thus, they will practice both quotation marks and speech bubbles. Let them share their work with the class.
Quotation marks and the concept of spoken words in writing have the potential to be stumbling blocks for young students. By utilizing hands-on, engaging activities that help your child SEE what is happening, they will quickly and easily grasp this challenging concept. Try it today and see the difference!

Comics and Quotations
All Freebies
Kids love comics. They’re visual and entertaining. They’re also a fun way to practice identifying spoken words in a story. Since kids love comics so much I started to use comics as an Art/Writing center when we teach quotation marks. That’s where this freebie came from!
In this center there is a short passage containing quotation marks. After reading the passage the students will turn the story into a 4 frame comic strip, converting the spoken words in quotation marks to speech bubbles!
For students who need a little more help you can differentiate by having them highlight the words in quotation marks in the story prior to creating their comic strips. If they need more remediation, you can help the students to find the spoken words in quotations or highlight the words in quotations yourself.

Teaching Dialogue with Comic Strips – It’s Fun!
Enjoy teaching dialogue with comic strips! No need for boring worksheets. The kids (and the teacher) will have fun while learning this important language skill.
Ms. Sneed Is Teaching Dialogue with Comic Strips
Our favorite fourth grade teacher, Ms. Sneed, leaned her elbows on her desk and sighed. Grading narrative writing was never easy. But this latest batch showed a distinct weakness: writing dialogue. What would she do?
As usual, Ms. Sneed began searching. “Hmmm, this is interesting,” she murmured. She clicked on a cartoon dialogue resource . Teaching dialogue with comic strips? The kids would definitely enjoy it. Yep, she would add this to her ELA block .
Direct Instruction
The next day, Ms. Sneed launched right into it. “Okay, guys, you need help with how to write dialogue.”
“You mean quotation marks and all that jazz?” asked a boy wearing purple glasses.
“Yep. Lucky for you, I’ll be teaching dialogue with comic strips.”
Her students cheered.
“First, we’ll learn the rules with this presentation.
“Okay, so what is dialogue?”
After her students offered some ideas, she clicked. “When characters talk in narrative writing, it is called dialogue.” Ms. Sneed smiled. This presentation was teacher-friendly. As she taught, prompts for both her and the students appeared little by little.
Direct and Indirect Quotes
Second, Ms. Sneed discussed using quotation marks in direct quotes.
“Remember,” she said, “every time a new character speaks, you also need to start a new paragraph.
“A direct quote tells the speaker’s exact words, and quotation marks surround the quote. An indirect quote paraphrases the speaker’s words. No quotation marks are used.”
Next, the PowerPoint led the students through some practice slides. Surprisingly, everyone remained engaged. “Wow,” thought Ms. Sneed, “I should use cartoons every day!”
Dialogue Tags
When the next slide came up, she asked, “Does anyone know what a dialogue tag is?” Her students looked at each other and shrugged.
“In direct quotes, dialogue tags tell who’s speaking and provide the action (e.g., yelled). We don’t put any quotation marks around it.”
Dialogue Tags at the Beginning of the Sentence
Next, Ms. Sneed addressed punctuation and capitalization of direct quotes. She began with the dialogue tag at the beginning.
Dialogue Tags at the End of the Sentence
After some practice, they moved on to dialogue tags at the end.
Dialogue Tags in the Middle of the Sentence
And finally, the dreaded dialogue tag in the middle. “Notice,” said Ms. Sneed, “a sentence always keeps its original capitalization and punctuation. The only exception is when the dialogue tag comes at the end. In that case, if the end mark is a period, it’s replaced by a comma.”
Dialogue Takes Practice
After teaching dialogue with comic strips, Ms. Sneed spent several days on practice. First, the students worked on direct and indirect quotes. Second, they wrote quotes with dialogue tags at the beginning, middle, and end of the sentence. Finally, students looked at cartoon strips and wrote their own dialogue.
“Each of these practice activities helps you learn more,” the teacher explained to her students. “For example, when you write comics as narrative writing, you show me that you understand paragraphing.”
Teaching Dialogue with Comic Strips Makes Kids [Practically] Perfect
The next time the students wrote stories, their dialogue had improved. “Yay!” thought Ms. Sneed, “They’re practically perfect in every way.” She hummed a little tune and smiled to herself. That little dialogue unit had done the trick. Not only that. She had some fun teaching dialogue with comic strips.
Enjoy Teaching
Learning the tricks of the trade helps you enjoy teaching. When kids are learning – and having fun in the process – the day is so much more enjoyable.

A fun idea to teach speech marks
This activity is designed to teach punctuation speech marks and emotion or tone of voice..
- Share on Twitter
- Share on Facebook
- Share on LinkedIn
- Share on Pinterest
On a recent trip to IKEA to source resources for Positive Eye, I spotted this fun speech bubble which is sold as a notice board. I thought it would make a fun backdrop for teaching speechmarks and secondly it may make a fun resource for working on the emotion conveyed through voice tone. Also speech bubbles are a visual feature of many books, they are an abstract concept. This bright green speech bubble brings it into the concrete understanding! You could also make a large speech bubble out of thick card.
Here are my ideas for its use.
Speechmark activities
I first stuck some strips of Velcro to the speech bubble to make a base for the activities.
Suggestion 1:
On the speech bubbles write sentences, e.g. “I love chocolate,” “I really like watching the ‘Modern Family’ because it is so funny.” Sentences can be written in braille and print, depending on the needs to the student.
“I hate doing the washing up,” “I don’t want to do my homework.” Place them on the speech bubble base one at a time.
Next: On strips of paper print some different voice tones, e.g. “Say in grumpy voice”, “Say in excited voice”. “Say in enthusiastic voice”.
Child picks a voice tone card and reads the sentence from the speech bubble in that voice! Discussion could follow as to the voice tone that might actually be used to say each sentence, and the likely facial expression and body language of the person whilst speaking.

Comics are great to use to practice using quotation marks because the dialogue is already placed in speech bubbles.

Comics aren't just for the little kids! With the growth of graphic novels, even our older students feel like comics are their "level.". In this activity, students create comic strips focused on target vocabulary. This allows teachers to see if the student can use the vocabulary appropriately in context. It's a fun, effective activity.
