2024 IAGC Conference

Graphic novels are powerful curricular tools that allow teachers to integrate social and emotional learning with English Language Arts standards, especially those that address analyzing content in both words and images. Presenters will guide participants as they consider how to use graphic texts from recent Caudill Award nominee lists to meet the academic and social/emotional needs of gifted middle-grade students. Participants will receive lesson examples and suggestions for additional graphic novels for classroom use.
