About this Class
Are you curious about what makes superheroes so powerful? Are you interested in writing the story of your own hero? If so, then this is the class for you! In this class, students will craft their own comic books. Students will have a chance to investigate these crime-fighting characters through a variety of educational lenses including science, art, social studies, and creative writing while developing their own story fit for a superhero!
