We welcome an illustrator

We love our wonderful Erasmus project!!!

We continue working on the elaboration of the stories. After a writer has come to classes and explained  us how stories are written, we now receive a visit from an illustrator who will explain us what her work consists of and what is necessary to be able to illustrate stories

SPAIN

Each of the classes that participates in the project has created a story based on a brainstorming: characters, place, objects that take place in the story, outcome ... 
Also, they have drawn the cover of each story using only their imagination.
For this last task, for illustration, we have been helped by the fantastic Illustrations illustrator Yolanda Cabrera Sánchez, who directed the workshop for our pupils, who were lucky enough to create the Illustration of the story that they have invented together.
In these photos you can see the creation process and also the result. We have learnt a lot! Thank you very much again Yolanda!
