Lesson Plan

Comic Strip Analysis Guide

In a 20-minute one-on-one session, the student will analyze a 4-panel comic strip to infer characters’ thoughts, complete thought-bubble templates with evidence, and reflect on their reasoning to boost perspective-taking skills.

Building inference and perspective-taking helps students better understand others’ feelings, improves social communication, and strengthens reading comprehension in academic and real-life contexts.
