YOU ARE A READER, YOU
ARE A WRITER
Some students will get numbered
sections of the book “The Most
Beautiful Thing” and illustrate these
texts; other students will find the
illustrations and re-write them. The
idea is that at the end we can put it all
together and have a complete written
and illustrated book made by The
European school students.
First, the students will find all of the clues, after that, they will
get a section of the book to either illustrate or re-write it.
