__**How To: Read A Graphic Novel**__

Make sure you read the pdf below about how to read graphic novels before you begin reading "Y: The Last Man." Click and read the "HowtoReadaGraphicNovel" pdf. It'll help give you a sense of how to read a text like this. A graphic novel moves in a lot of different directions, much like looking at a drawing of a movie. It helps to know how to follow the information.



You're also going to need to show me that you know how to read a graphic novel. What you're going to do after you've viewed the slide show is view the clip below: media type="file" key="annotation_clip.3gp" width="300" height="300"

Once you have viewed the clip, I need to see how well you understand both the "How to read a graphic novel" slideshow pdf and the "How to annotate a text or image in Preview" video. What you're going to do is select the pdf below labeled "y_pg17.pdf." It's a pdf that I annotated to show what was happening on that page. Your assignment will be to do that same thing using the "y_pg2.pdf," "y_pg3.pdf," "y_pg4.pdf," and "y_pg5.pdf" to show me that you 1. understand how to read a graphic novel, and 2. show me you know how to annotate a page. What you're going to do is identify as many parts necessary of the page. So, show me where to read next, number the panels, identify dialogue bubbles, thought bubbles, etc. At the end, write a brief summary telling me what was on that page. Similar to how I ended the "y_pg17" pdf. Once you have done that, select "Save As..." and label it the way you have been doing it up until now. Send it as an email with the attachment to me at olympusenglish@gmail.com. **(worth 1 point)**
