This unit and its novel, Persepolis, often lines up well with the study of Colonialism/Imperialism in I&S. It can easily fit in an IDU with not only I&S but also Art. In my experience, often the I&S teachers would allow Phase 1-4 English B students to turn in their graphic novels from this unit in lieu of research papers for their class. Through this unit students will learn the conventions of writing graphic novels and put their new understanding to work by creating their own stories exploring their chosen historic location.
 
This set contains a complete MYP unit plan, a customized Padlet full of multimodal texts and resources, a digital student interactive notebook, summative assessments, and much more. 
We map all of the global contexts, key and related concepts, tech integration, covering an extensive range of multimodal text types, and service connections into a complete curriculum freeing you up to focus on building the English lessons within this framework to meet your students' needs. The MYP unit planner, texts, and assessments are differentiated for emergent, capable, and proficient students.
