Would you be OK with a teacher using a comic book to help your child read?

I think it is great that teachers are trying to evolve and reach out to a new generation with new interests. I think it could help students who are stuggling to excell in areas they likely would never have excelled in, if it weren't for creating comic books. You could even take it a step further with high school students and teach them hands on about sales, business operations, and marketing the comic books. Way to go to these teachers!

I think anything that gets kids excited about reading is great. And it sounds like a fun idea to me!
