Memorable moments and visual elements

What I enjoy most is creating the book of letters addressed to Erin Gruwell after our work on respecting people of different languages, races, colors, and religions. We usually watch the movie around January 27, Memorial Day. The next task is to write a diary page.

While they wrote, I saw faces filled with happiness, fear, and even tears of pain. When I was allowed to read their diaries, I found beautiful stories—stories of fear and of the pain of losing a parent or coping with illness. We adults don’t listen enough to 10-year-olds.

We adults listen too little to 10-year-olds… students created a book of 93 letters full of beautiful stories, fears, and hopes.

Letters to Mrs. Erin Gruwell
This led to the idea of writing anonymous letters directly to the author. The students worked hard and created a book of 93 letters. We even designed the template together; they wanted it simple yet elegant.

Goals and aspirations for the upcoming year

  • Increase knowledge among teachers so that you can make the best use of Book Creator.
  • Increase the use of the Book Creator App for future work.
  • Participate more with some classes, at international events on book creation.
  • Create books/templates like the book I share about the emotions under construction. The activities can be found in Italian on the web.
