Recently I was subbing for a grade 7 art class that was beginning a unit on cartooning. As an additional element I decided to introduce a mini lesson on manga. I used chibi as an introduction, rather than regular manga drawing styles, since chibi are simplified small child-like versions of manga characters. I found the handout below from the deviantart group the mini chibi club. The original had some inappropriate elements on it for middle school students that I removed.
I also
created this short manga version of the classic cartoon emotions chart to emphasise the exaggerated facial expressions that are used in manga and other cartooning styles.
