Coincidence:

Yesterday I was cleaning up a storage area where the cat knocked down some boxes. What I found was a "Rick O'Shay Reading Kit" I had rescued from an elementary school waste basket about 30 years ago and had forgotten about.

It is about the size of a shoe box. Inside there were several section. One was 4 panels, then a question about what you think would happen next. Another was 4 panels with some words missing, and a list of words to choose from. And one was a collection of envelopes with about a 20 panel story, cut into individual panels, to be arranged in order. I got distracted repairing the kit box but there may have been more to it.

I don't remember enough about the original strip to recognize any stories, but from what I saw of the kit, it would certainly not be PC enough for a modern school system.
