Comic - Yesterday

Try to make a narrative comic in the past:

a) Brainstorm:
   a1- some past time expressions
   a2- some everyday activities
   a3- a few unusual ones.
b) Design the comic starting with the making of the sentences. Take into account:
- the regular and irregular verbs.
- the past continuous (was/were + V -ing) for continuous actions in the past.
c) You can divide the sheet of paper into 6 panels. Of course, they can have different sizes.
d) The topic suggested today is the past. Get started with a past time expression, for instance, "yesterday".

You don't have to be an artist...
