Send for a Superhero! | Michael Rosen
1 post | 1 read
It's time for bed and Dad is reading Emily and little Elmer a story. 'Danger Filth and Vacuum, The Terrible Two, are trying to destroy the world ' Who will save the day? Steel Man isn't tough enough; Flying-Through-the-Air-Very-Fast-Man isn't fast enough and Incredible-Big-Strong-Green-Man isn't strong enough. Who can help? Clever young Brad 40 has a brilliant idea: he calls on a most unlikely superhero: Incredibly Boring Man, who sends the villains - and everyone else - to sleep Dad thinks Emily and Elmer have fallen asleep too. But he's wrong.

Superheroes are all the craze in hollywood right now, and this graphic novel does a great job of parodying this genre. It is all about a dad telling his children a bed time story about Danger Filth and Vacuum, The Terrible Two attacking a city. Many superheroes including Steel Man come to save the day. The children will love this Science Fictions story as a S or RT. #ucflae3414f19

Jgolub13 Similar to what I believe with most Caldecott winning books a great ESOL strategy for graphic novels like this one would be #30 Encourage the use of diagrams and drawings as aids to identify concepts and seeing relationships. The UDL strategy Offer alternatives for auditory information (1.2) goes hand in hand with this as the alternative would be the many illustrations. 4y
Jgolub13 I love this two day lesson plan and hope to incorporate it into my own classroom. It gives the students the chance to create their own superheroes and write graphic novels and opinion essays about them. https://studentreasures.com/blog/2-super-fun-superhero-writing-lesson-plans-for-... 4y
Jgolub13 Author Michael Rosen and illustrator Katharine McEwen do a fantastic job of bringing their heroes to life. 4y
DrSpalding I could see many students enjoying this graphic novel in a middle grade class. Be sure to include this format in your classroom library. 4y
