Why do you think Aydin, Spiegleman, and Satrapi decided to inform readers about these important, historical events using multimodal texts (graphic novels and film) rather than writing traditional novels or historical essays? By looking at these samples, can  you predict how reading or watching the entire novel or film might affect the way you understand, feel, react to each author’s subject? why I think Aiden , Spiegleman and Satrapi decided to inform readers in images rather than the traditional writing is one everybody loves a good cartoon and two when reading a picture it’s a hundred times easier to understand because like the phrase goes a picture is worth a thousand words. Also it’s your own thought that you can depend on. The pictures may bring an understanding to some and confusion to others and also a hatred for the ones that don’t like the pieces of art.

These are examples of multimodal texts as are the videos about multimodal writing.  Have you ever worked on a multimodal piece? How did it go? What are you excited about? What are you worried about?I think everybody has worked on a multimodal piece when we took our sat and our final exams but making one never have I down it but it looks like it would be hard.i mean I feel as if multimodal pieces are about trying to read between the lines it’s not hard to read what they have on the paper the hard part is trying to decipher it. What I’m worried about is the same thing. I feel like everybody is worried about the people who won’t take the piece the way it’s prescribed or written. They see their own things based on what they want to see and how they see you.
