Welcome to my demo created for the Illinois State Writing Project Summer Institute 2013 at Illinois State University.
The purpose of this project is to demonstrate a process of inquiry into the "superhero origin" as a genre and how that understanding can facilitate student writing. While this demo is aimed at upper-level secondary students, the material is infinitely adaptable to other levels.
Another equally important purpose for this demo is to allow me to write about Superman. Thank you, ISWP, for the opportunity.
Please feel free to adapt materials for your classroom.
