Techniques include jokes, riddles, tongue twisters, puns, surprise, incongruity, exaggeration and more. All you need is a sense of humor and a love of laughter. This is not your typical dull, dry teacher workshop. Come prepared to think funny, write funny and draw funny. In this workshop, teachers will learn some basic cartooning skills and how to apply those skills across the curriculum.
Cartoonists have to squeeze all their dialogue into a little cartoon balloon.
They have to be very careful with the words they use. This workshop is great fun and teachers will leave with ideas and techniques they can put to immediate use in the classroom.
