"Manga & Comic Con Project-Based Learning" with Ashley Hawkins

Ashley is one of my first stops when I am trying to expand my knowledge of manga, and I was very excited when she shared out this lesson on social media. She is also one of the authors of a book for educators on incorporating manga into schools!
This lesson has my brain buzzing with all the possibilities - I hope you enjoy learning about it!
