12 Comics Learning Support Program

12COMICS LEARNING SUPPORT PROGRAM

The 12 Comics Learning Support Program (LSP) is unique Interdisciplinary Literacy Support (ILS) service for children, youth, adults and seniors. The 12Comics LSP uses the creation of a custom superhero, comic book and short film as educational support tools primarily for school aged children. These tools not only support enhancement in literacy, reading, writing, and math, but the program also insures that students increase their knowledge and skills in the natural sciences, history, oral communication and personal vocabulary. For teens, adults and seniors, 12Comics offers a unique life enriching opportunity to participate in the creation of a custom comic book or short film, featuring activities such as book signings, entreprenuership and movie making!

12COMICS PROGRAM PHILOSOPHY: SCHOOL AGE STUDENTS

The 12 Comics method promotes the connection of student academic achievement to the growth of their super hero character. The better the student does in school, the students’ created hero becomes more prominent and powerful. Report card grades, completed homework assignments, and test scores are all converted into points (i.e. an A or 100% on a test equals 20 points). These points are applied to the student’s super hero character statistics. This motivates students to complete school work and to study knowing their success will determine the fate of their character in the comic book or short film.

In addition to creating and developing a superhero character, sponsoring schools or Non-Profit organizations have the option of allowing their students to participate in our entrepreneurial component. This allows students to experience the marketing, and selling, of their comic book as well as receiving royalties from sales of any merchandise or book signings that feature their character.

At the end of the school year, students will produce either a custom biographical comic book, a collaborative, professionally illustrated comic book or a professionally produced short film to share with friends, family and the world

12COMICS PROGRAM PHILOSOPHY: TEENS – ADULTS – SENIORS PROGRAMS

The 12Comics Enrichment method is on the cutting edge in its approach to providing unique programming for our teens, adults and seniors. 12Comics also uses custom gaming and short film making as incentives to keep hard to reach populations in high attendance. Simply put, who wouldn’t want to be in a movie?
